The generative grammar of the brain: a critique of internally generated representations
Open accessAbstract
The past decade of progress in neurobiology has uncovered important organizational principles for network preconfiguration and neuronal selection that suggest a generative grammar exists in the brain. In this Perspective, I discuss the competence of the hippocampal neural network to generically express temporally compressed sequences of neuronal firing that represent novel experiences, which is envisioned as a form of generative neural syntax supporting a neurobiological perspective on brain function. I compare this neural competence with the hippocampal network performance that represents specific experiences with higher fidelity after new learning during replay, which is envisioned as a form of neural semantic that supports a complementary neuropsychological perspective. I also demonstrate how the syntax of network competence emerges a priori during early postnatal life and is followed by the later development of network performance that enables rapid encoding and memory consolidation. Thus, I propose that this generative grammar of the brain is essential for internally generated representations, which are crucial for the cognitive processes underlying learning and memory, prospection, and inference, which ultimately underlie our reason and representation of the world.

Visuo-spatial imagery is the skill that is maximally correlated with dream recall in adults.
“Visuo-spatial imagery is also the skill that is maximally correlated with dream recall in adults308 and, in children, imagery and dream recall develop hand in hand257.”
From Consciousness and sleep (2024) · cites this paper as [308]
The ‘Network preconfiguration and neuronal selection in the hippocampus’ section discusses impaired dreaming content after bilateral hippocampal damage, but not dream recall or its correlation with visuo-spatial imagery in adults. Searches for visuo-spatial imagery and dream-recall correlations found no passage addressing that claim in our copy. The separate claim about children is attached to a different citation.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
