BIOL 1107 Lecture Notes - Lecture 2: Entorhinal Cortex, Grid Cell, Head Direction Cells
Document Summary
Sally seo, luvika gupta, savanna schlange, & lauren dodd. Why did john o"keefe, may-britt moser and edvard i. moser update their facebook pages last week: o"keefe, j. (1975). Place units in the hippocampus of the freely moving rat. Further research should be done to narrow and elucidate the exact internal navigatory function of the hippocampus: moser, e. i. , & moser, m. (2013). Grid cells and neural coding in high-end cortices. 80: 765-774: the brain is very complex and difficult to decipher, in particular the cerebral cortex controls many important cognitive processes. The purpose of the research discussed in this article was to help put us in the direction of discovering the mechanistic fundamentals of the cognitive functions of the brain. There has already been work in the visual cortex because inputs can be traced back to a sensory origin except for high-order cortices where the input can"t be traced back to a specific sensory origin.
