Place Cells, Grid Cells, and Memory [PDF]
The hippocampal system is critical for storage and retrieval of declarative memories, including memories for locations and events that take place at those locations. Spatial memories place high demands on capacity. Memories must be distinct to be recalled without interference and encoding must be fast.

A neuromorphic SLAM system shows potential for more efficient implementation than its traditional counterpart. We demonstrate a mixed-mode implementation for spatial encoding neurons including theta cells, vector cells, and place cells. Together, they form a biologically plausible network that could reproduce the localization functionality of place ...

Place Cells in Head-Fixed Mice Navigating a Floating Real-World Environment. [PDF]
The hippocampal place cell system in rodents has provided a major paradigm for the scientific investigation of memory function and dysfunction. Place cells have been observed in area CA1 of the hippocampus of both freely moving animals, and of head-fixed

A Positioning Method Based on Place Cells and Head-Direction Cells for Inertial/Visual Brain-Inspired Navigation System [PDF]
Mammals rely on vision and self-motion information in nature to distinguish directions and navigate accurately and stably. Inspired by the mammalian brain neurons to represent the spatial environment, the brain-inspired positioning method based on multi ...

Scopolamine Impairs Spatial Information Recorded With “Miniscope” Calcium Imaging in Hippocampal Place Cells [PDF]
The hippocampus and associated cholinergic inputs have important roles in spatial memory in rodents. Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChRs) are involved in the communication of cholinergic signals and regulate spatial memory. They have been found to

Place Cells, Grid Cells, Attractors, and Remapping [PDF]
Place and grid cells are thought to use a mixture of external sensory information and internal attractor dynamics to organize their activity. Attractor dynamics may explain both why neurons react coherently following sufficiently large changes to the environment (discrete attractors) and how firing patterns move smoothly from one representation to the ...

Learning place cells and remapping by decoding the cognitive map [PDF]
Hippocampal place cells are known for their spatially selective firing and are believed to encode an animal’s location while forming part of a cognitive map of space.

Path integration in place cells of developing rats
Significance The mammalian brain has neurons that specifically represent the animal’s location in the environment. Place cells in the hippocampus encode position, whereas grid cells in the medial entorhinal cortex, one synapse away, also express ...

Place cells on a maze encode routes rather than destinations [PDF]
Hippocampal place cells fire at different rates when a rodent runs through a given location on its way to different destinations. However, it is unclear whether such firing represents the animal’s intended destination or the execution of a specific ...

A place for place cells in post-stroke cognitive impairment. [PDF]
In a recent study, Heiser et al. showed that hippocampal place cell stability and spatial encoding were disrupted in mice after brain-wide microstrokes. These findings suggest that hippocampal neurons are particularly vulnerable to dysfunction after stroke, even in the absence of local lesions.
