In this Review, we describe the singular success of attractor neural network models in
describing how the brain maintains persistent activity states for working memory, corrects …

Since the first place cell was recorded and the cognitive-map theory was subsequently
formulated, investigation of spatial representation in the hippocampal formation has evolved …

Grid cells recorded in the medial entorhinal cortex of freely moving rats exhibit firing at
regular spatial locations and temporal modulation with theta rhythm oscillations (4 to 11 …

We examined simultaneously recorded spikes from multiple rat grid cells, to explain
mechanisms underlying their activity. Among grid cells with similar spatial periods, the …

Cortical circuits are thought to multiplex firing rate codes with temporal codes that rely on
oscillatory network activity, but the circuit mechanisms that combine these coding schemes …

During navigation, grid cells increase their spike rates in firing fields arranged on a markedly
regular triangular lattice, whereas their spike timing is often modulated by theta oscillations …

Generalizing experiences to guide decision-making in novel situations is a hallmark of
flexible behavior. Cognitive maps of an environment or task can theoretically afford such …

The hippocampal formation is critically involved in learning and memory and contains a
large proportion of neurons encoding aspects of the organism's spatial surroundings. In the …

Grid cells are space-modulated neurons with periodic firing fields. In moving animals, the
multiple firing fields of an individual grid cell form a triangular pattern tiling the entire space …

Attractor networks are a popular computational construct used to model different brain
systems. These networks allow elegant computations that are thought to represent a number …
