Heading direction with respect to a reference point modulates place-cell activity
Place cells are neurons in the hippocampus which encode an animal’s location in space. Here, in mice, the authors show that place cell activity is also modulated by the heading-direction of the animal relative to a particular “reference point” that can be either within or outside their enclosure....
