#PlaceFields

What about #placefields and #thetasequences?

✅ Place fields - intact
✅ Population level - space could be decoded equally well in control versus targeted animals [e.g. video in 1/]

BUT

❌ Pairwise corr. b/w pyramidal neurons were impaired
❌ ~8Hz rhythmicity of theta sequences was impaired

See how much #dendritic geometry matters for #SpatialCoding: clustered excitatory inputs on #CA1 #dendrites can support stable #PlaceFields with fewer active #synapses, by engaging local nonlinearities and Ca2+ signaling:

New paper by Grieves, Duvelle & Taube: Rat #hippocampal #PlaceCells map terrain geometry independently of #behavior. On ridged “hillscape” terrain, #PlaceFields remapped, aligned with terrain contours & repeated across similar #topography:

#Hippocampus people, has anyone recorded #PlaceFields in rodents navigating 3-d environments?
