Color-coded mean firing rate maps of place fields detected in the forth trials (left, sorted by the location of place fields peak) and back trials (right, sorted according to firing order in the forth trials) of all bidirectional cells recorded in the track with objects (top) or without objects (bottom). The color represents the intensity of the mean firing rate in a given bin normalized to the maximum mean firing rate (peak rate) in each direction. Note that in the CP condition, the mean firing map in one direction is the mirror image of the mean firing map in the other direction, indicating strong distance coding.

Happy to share our new paper with Mathilde Nordlund and Julie Koenig out @currentbiology.bsky.social. We used virtual reality in mice to study hippocampal distance coding. Our results suggest a primary contribution of grid cells to distance over cue-dependent place cell coding.

Sleep need–dependent plasticity of a thalamic circuit promotes homeostatic recovery sleep Prolonged wakefulness leads to persistent, deep recovery sleep (RS). However, the neuronal circuits that mediate this process remain elusive. From a circuit screen in mice, we identified a group of th...

New collaborative study out with Mark Wu’s group identifies a thalamic reuniens-zona incerta circuit as both responsive to induced sleep deprivation and essential for mediating recovery sleep. Further perspective on this work follows./1
