Place cells and long-term potentiation in the hippocampus

Place cells and long-term potentiation in the hippocampus

Place cells show location-specific firing patterns according to an animal’s position in an environment and are thought to contribute to the spatial representation required for self-navigation. Decades of study have extensively characterized the properties of place cells and suggested the involvement...
