The activity of individual pyramidal cells in the CA1 and CA3 subfields of the rodent
hippocampus exhibits a remarkable selectivity for specific locations and orientations of the …

Evidence from single unit and lesion studies suggests that the hippocampal formation acts
as a spatial or cognitive map (O'Keefe and Nadel, 1978). In this chapter, I summarise some …

This study examined the effects of ibotenic acid‐induced lesions of the hippocampus,
subiculum and hippocampus±subiculum upon the capacity of rats to learn and perform a …

Over 90% of all spontaneously active hippocampal pyramidal cells in freely moving rats
signal the animal's spatial position by reliably changing their firing rate each time the animal …

The contribution of the medial septum to different aspects of spatial information processing
was assessed by examining the effects of reversible septal inactivation on radial maze …

Previous studies have shown that complex-spike cells, the most common cell type recorded
in the hippocampus of freely moving rats, have the property of spatial firing--that is, a cell will …

It has been shown that most hippocampal complex‐spike cells fire at specific locations in
relation to a set of controlled spatial cues and that they continue to fire in the appropriate …

The aims of this paper are to consider which spatial functions are performed by the primate
hippocampus, how these are related to the memory functions performed by the …

Most hippocampal formation single units in freely behaving rats fall into one of two
categories (Ranck 1973). The most obvious behavioral correlate of complex-spike (CS) cells …

The hippocampus has been proposed to participate in either spatial or temporal mapping.
As an alternative to these seemingly conflicting views, we hypothesized that the …
