Hippocampal place cells selectively fire when an animal traverses a particular location and
are considered a neural substrate of spatial memory. Place cells were shown to change their …

Place cells are hippocampal neurons that have a strong location‐specific firing activity in the
rat's current environment. Collectively, place cells also provide a signature of the rat's …

To provide a substrate for remembering where in space events have occurred, place cells
must reliably encode the same positions across long timescales. However, in many cases …

The hippocampal formation is critical for the acquisition and consolidation of memories.
When recorded in freely moving animals, hippocampal pyramidal neurons fire in a location …

The population of hippocampal neurons actively coding space continually changes across
days as mice repeatedly perform tasks. Many hippocampal place cells become inactive …

Learning critically depends on the ability to rapidly form and store non-overlapping
representations of the external world. In line with their postulated role in episodic memory …

In humans and other mammals, the hippocampus is critical for episodic memory, the
autobiographical record of events, including where and when they happen. When one …

The activity of ensembles of hippocampal place cells represents a hallmark of an animal's
spatial experience. The neuronal mechanisms that enable the rapid expression of novel …

Hippocampal place cells support spatial memory using sensory information from the
environment and self-motion information to localize their firing fields. Currently, there is …

The hippocampal formation plays key roles in representing an animal's location and in
detecting environmental novelty to create or update those representations. However, the …
