Comparing Mouse and Rat Hippocampal Place Cell Activities and Firing Sequences in the Same Environments

Hippocampal place cells are key to spatial representation and spatial memory processing. They fire at specific locations in a space (place fields) and fire in precise patterns during theta sequences and during ripple-associated replay events. These phenomena have been extensively studied in rats, bu...
