#gridcells — Public Fediverse posts

🧠 New preprint by Guardamagna et al.: Using large-scale recordings in #rat pups, the authors show that toroidal #manifolds in #MEC emerge by P10, before eye and ear opening, upright gait, and active exploration. Ring-like manifolds appear even earlier, by P9. External spatial experience seems to align these preconfigured internal maps only later, as pups begin to navigate.

Which of these famous "spatial cell" type is better?

Well, which is your favourite anyway? Yes it's a silly question

Very cool retrospective AND review of the hippocampal #SpatialCognition field from Neil Burgess:
Oscillations and Boundaries in My Route Through the Hippocampal Cognitive Map

Mentions @adredish @tom_hartley and many others, unfortunately not on Mastodon I think

I love #GridCells but I have to say their influence for any neural process is probably highly over-inflated.

When you actually record from #MEC you see there are so many non-grid cells… it’s really a huge contrast to #Hippocampus where most of the cells are going to be #PlaceCells either in the current environment or another.

Some very nice #PlaceCells and #GridCells in this Virtual Reality experiment in #NeuroMice!
#NeuroPreprint from the #ChenLab:

Visual boundary cues, alone, can anchor place and grid cells in virtual reality

New review on the “spatial cells” across different species! Looks very interesting:
Neural mechanisms for spatial cognition across vertebrates
Vinepinsky & Segev 2023

Small but important comment: it is perfectly normal for place cells to have multiple #PlaceFields ! Only in very small environments (<80cm diameter) will you mostly see single-field place cells. The single field is probably more the exception than the rule in the natural world.
