Synaptic plasticity, the activity-dependent change in neuronal connection strength, has long
been considered an important component of learning and memory. Computational and …

Tethered and battery-powered devices that interface with neural tissues can restrict natural
motions and prevent social interactions in animal models, thereby limiting the utility of these …

In the hippocampus, spatial maps are formed by place cells while contextual memories are
thought to be encoded as engrams,,,,–. Engrams are typically identified by expression of the …

Major technology companies are investing significant sums of money in the creation of the
metaverse whose main feature will be the fusion between the virtual world and the physical …

Robotics and neuroscience are sister disciplines that both aim to understand how agile,
efficient, and robust locomotion can be achieved in autonomous agents. Robotics has …

Learning has been associated with modifications of synaptic and circuit properties, but the
precise changes storing information in mammals have remained largely unclear. We …

Transcriptomics has revealed that cortical inhibitory neurons exhibit a great diversity of fine
molecular subtypes,,,,–, but it is not known whether these subtypes have correspondingly …

Over the past years, numerous methods have emerged to automate the quantification of
animal behavior at a resolution not previously imaginable. This has opened up a new field of …

The hippocampus is crucial for spatial navigation and episodic memory formation.
Hippocampal place cells exhibit spatially selective activity within an environment and have …

The role of the hippocampus in spatial navigation has been primarily studied in nocturnal
mammals, such as rats, that lack many adaptations for daylight vision. Here we demonstrate …
