Researchers report on how memories formed in one area of the brain are replayed and transferred to a different area during rest.
During navigation tasks using a 'smell scape', the entorhinal cortex and ventromedial prefrontal cortex elicit grid cell-like activity.
Switching between operational modes occurs dynamically according to the demands of the task at hand, a new study reports.
Using a chocolatey reward, researchers discover how rats form some memories.
Study shows how hippocampal cells can represent different hypothetical scenarios consistently and systematically over time. The findings shed new light on how place cells assist in decision making and imagination.
Researchers report patters created by grid cells are modified by the shape of the environment.
A new study fills in major gaps in research about the brain's so-called 'GPS system'.
New discovery could change the way we think about how the brain helps us to navigate.
Researchers report on how our understanding of how local places connect geographically helps the brain to form a comprehensive global map.
Researchers report rats simulate journeys to areas they have not been able to reach while at rest.
The spatial dissociation in Alzheimer's disease that causes people to wander may be a result of tau accumulation in the entorhinal cortex's grid cells, a new study reports.
Grid cells have been found in the presubiculum and parasubiculum of the rat brain.
