New research in eLife challenges some long-held ideas about place cells and grid cells and suggests a powerful border-to-place cell pathway for navigation.

Learning place cells and remapping by decoding the cognitive map
Border cells are sufficient to generate place cells and remapping during path integration in artificial neural networks, challenging the role of grid cells for spatial navigation.

The Chemosensory-Valence Imprint: A Phase-Organized Olfactory-Respiratory Architecture Linking Bodily State, Salience, Memory, Spatiotemporal Context, and Action Trajectories
Olfactory, respiratory, limbic, interoceptive, and entorhinal-hippocampal processes are typically studied separately. This leaves an explanatory gap: how does a chemically sampled environment become a...
