The seemingly diverse and random statistics of place cell firing fields in large and small environments; in 1d, 2d, and 3d; in bats and rodents are explained by a remarkably simple mathematical model. With @nischmainali and @Rava_daSilveira: doi.org/10.1016/j.neur… @ELSCbrain #KiloNeurons @ERC_Research
निश्चल@nischmainali

Our(@yoramburak,@Rava_daSilveira) work on mathematical principles underlying place maps in Hippocampus is out @NeuroCellPress! We unify various experimental findings under one model that holds across species, dimensionalities & spatial scale. Link: cell.com/neuron/fulltex… 🧵👇

I had an amazing visit @UTAustin. Wonderful group of neuroscientists studying perception, learning and memory. The campus is a jewel. Thanks to y’all. Highlight: the elevator buttons have a longhorn shaped light!!

Second, biases reported in orientation perception can be explained by an efficient neural code together with a prior distribution that is nearly uniform.
