PLACE CELL FORMATION BY GRID CELL CONVERGENCE IN THE DENDRITES OF A CA1 MODEL NEURON

PLACE CELL FORMATION BY GRID CELL CONVERGENCE IN THE DENDRITES OF A CA1 MODEL NEURON

Place cells are pyramidal neurons in CA1 and CA3 regions of hippocampus which fire selectively when the animal is located in a particular place in space. CA1 place cells receive synaptic input from CA3 via the Schaffer collateral fibers to their proximal apical and basal dendrites and from the third...
