Researchers Explore How the Brain Perceives Direction and Location

The Who asked “who are you?” but Dartmouth neurobiologist Jeffrey Taube “where are you?” and “where are you going?” Taube is not asking philosophical or theological questions. He is investigating nerve cells in the brain that function in establishing one’s location and direction.

Putting Distinct Memories of Similar Events in Their Place

A new study reports, contrary to popular belief, place cells in the dentate gyrus do not remap. Instead, memory discrimination is controlled by increased co-firing of place cells and the neurons that organize which place cells discharge.
