#JNeurosci: @YanboLian Simon Williams @_AndyAlexander Michael Hasselmo & Burkitt University of Melbourne show that a learning model taking visual input as an animal explores the environment can generate diverse egocentric boundary cells consistent with experimental data jneurosci.org/lookup/DOI/10.…

Congratulations to lab member Patrick LaChance for receiving the prestigious Donald B. Lindsley prize for his graduate work!

I'm excited to share that we just posted this important experimental project by Jennifer Robinson with Mark Brandon, PhD.! Optogenetic Silencing of Medial Septal GABAergic Neurons Disrupts Grid Cell Spatial and Temporal Coding in the Medial Entorhinal Cortex biorxiv.org/content/10.110…




Happy to share my first paper with Michael Hasselmo, "Distinct codes for environment structure and symmetry in postrhinal and retrosplenial cortices" nature.com/articles/s4146…

Just published a commentary with @JennCRobinson & Patrick LaChance about modeling by Zilong Ji of exciting data from Abraham Zelalem Vollan and Edvard Ingjald Moser. Proposes that alternating theta sweeps shown in entorhinal cortex can scan future paths to guide navigation. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
