The grid code for ordered experience
Entorhinal cortical grid cells fire in a periodic pattern that tiles space, which is suggestive of a
spatial coordinate system. However, irregularities in the grid pattern as well as responses of …

Social behaviour shapes hypothalamic neural ensemble representations of conspecific sex
All animals possess a repertoire of innate (or instinctive,) behaviours, which can be
performed without training. Whether such behaviours are mediated by anatomically distinct …

Sources of richness and ineffability for phenomenally conscious states
Conscious states—state that there is something it is like to be in—seem both rich or full of
detail and ineffable or hard to fully describe or recall. The problem of ineffability, in particular …
