Whether entorhinal velocity signals are equally influenced or provide a universal metric for self-motion across environments?
Munn, Robert GK, Caitlin S. Mallory, Kiah Hardcastle, Dane M. Chetkovich, and Lisa M. Giocomo. “Entorhinal velocity signals reflect environmental geometry.” bioRxiv (2019): 671222. doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/671222
Summary
The entorhinal cortex contains neural signals for representing self-location, including grid …
How is three-dimensional space encoded in the brain?
We live in a three-dimensional world. Questions about how we perceive and represent the three-dimensional world that surrounds us have occupied humankind for centuries.
Some of Nachum Ulanovsky’s group main results in recent years included: the finding that in flight,…
