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 …

Learning and memory are two of the most magical capabilities of our mind. Learning is the
biological process of acquiring new knowledge about the world, and memory is the process …

The incorporation of new information into the hippocampal network is likely to be
constrained by its innate architecture and internally generated activity patterns. However, the …

Spike sorting is a crucial step to extract information from extracellular recordings. With new
recording opportunities provided by the development of new electrodes that allow …

Spatial navigation is often used as a behavioral task in studies of the neuronal circuits that
underlie cognition, learning and memory in rodents. The combination of in vivo microscopy …

Excitatory control of inhibitory neurons is poorly understood due to the difficulty of studying
synaptic connectivity in vivo. We inferred such connectivity through analysis of spike timing …

Traditionally considered a homogeneous cell type, hippocampal pyramidal cells have been
recently shown to be highly diverse. However, how this cellular diversity relates to the …

The most widely used spike-sorting algorithms are semiautomatic in practice, requiring
manual tuning of the automatic solution to achieve good performance. In this work, we …

Two facts about the hippocampus have been common currency among neuroscientists for
several decades. First, lesions of the hippocampus in humans prevent the acquisition of new …

Understanding how the brain operates requires understanding how large sets of neurons
function together. Modern recording technology makes it possible to simultaneously record …
