Finite Scale of Spatial Representation in the Hippocampus
Norwegian University of Science and Technology · Amsterdam Neuroscience
Abstract
To determine how spatial scale is represented in the pyramidal cell population of the hippocampus, we recorded neural activity at multiple longitudinal levels of this brain area while rats ran back and forth on an 18-meter-long linear track. CA3 cells had well-defined place fields at all levels. The scale of representation increased almost linearly from
