[PDF][PDF] What is a cognitive map? Organizing knowledge for flexible behavior

TEJ Behrens, TH Muller, JCR Whittington, S Mark… - Neuron, 2018 - cell.com
It is proposed that a cognitive map encoding the relationships between entities in the world
supports flexible behavior, but the majority of the neural evidence for such a system comes …

Dentate gyrus circuits for encoding, retrieval and discrimination of episodic memories

T Hainmueller, M Bartos - Nature Reviews Neuroscience, 2020 - nature.com
The dentate gyrus (DG) has a key role in hippocampal memory formation. Intriguingly, DG

Spatial representation in the hippocampal formation: a history

EI Moser, MB Moser, BL McNaughton - Nature neuroscience, 2017 - nature.com
Since the first place cell was recorded and the cognitive-map theory was subsequently
formulated, investigation of spatial representation in the hippocampal formation has evolved …

[PDF][PDF] A dedicated population for reward coding in the hippocampus

JL Gauthier, DW Tank - Neuron, 2018 - cell.com
The hippocampus plays a critical role in goal-directed navigation. Across different
environments, however, hippocampal maps are randomized, making it unclear how goal …

Hippocampal place codes are gated by behavioral engagement

NL Pettit, XC Yuan, CD Harvey - Nature neuroscience, 2022 - nature.com
As animals explore an environment, the hippocampus is thought to automatically form and
maintain a place code by combining sensory and self-motion signals. Instead, we observed …
