Nature Communications, 2022 Signals about head orientation and movement in the vestibular periphery are fundamental to the sense of balance and motion, but difficult to measure systematically during head motion.

Planar cell polarity: Heading in the right direction [PDF]
Developmental Dynamics, 2005 AbstractEpithelial cells are patterned not only along their apical–basolateral axis, but also along the plane of the epithelial sheet; the latter event is regulated by the planar cell polarity (PCP) pathway. PCP regulates diverse outputs, such as the distal placement of a hair in all cells of the Drosophila wing, and convergent extension movements ...

NEURAL MODELS OF HEAD-DIRECTION CELLS [PDF]
From Associations to Rules, 2008 After a review of the purpose and biological background of Head Direction Cells, and existing models of them, we introduce an improved neural model that integrates visual flow information with the vestibular inputs found in earlier models. Simulation results using real video inputs are presented to explore and validate the new model, the evolutionary ...

During hippocampal inactivation, grid cells maintain synchrony, even when the grid pattern is lost
eLife, 2019 The grid cell network in the medial entorhinal cortex (MEC) has been subject to thorough testing and analysis, and many theories for their formation have been suggested.

Angular and linear speed cells in the parahippocampal circuits
Nature Communications, 2022 It remains unclear how the hippocampal region integrates position and self-motion information to update spatial representations. Here, the authors report grid and head direction cells as well as cells encoding self-motion parameters such as angular head ...

Path integration of head direction: updating a packet of neural activity at the correct speed using axonal conduction delays. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The head direction cell system is capable of accurately updating its current representation of head direction in the absence of visual input. This is known as the path integration of head direction.

The vestibular contribution to the head direction cells signal and navigation
Frontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2014 Spatial learning and navigation depend on neural representations of location and direction within the environment. These representations, encoded by place cells and head direction cells, respectively, are dominantly controlled by visual cues, but ...

How the cerebellum may monitor sensory information for spatial representation
Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2014 The cerebellum has already been shown to participate in the navigation function. We propose here that this structure is involved in maintaining a sense of direction and location during self-motion by monitoring sensory information and interacting with ...

Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2018 According to the currently prevailing theory, hippocampal formation constructs and maintains cognitive spatial maps. Most of the experimental evidence for this theory comes from the studies on navigation in laboratory rats and mice, typically male ...
