The Tolman-Eichenbaum Machine: Unifying Space and Relational Memory through Generalization in the Hippocampal Formation (2019, background): “These place-like fields span multiple sizes, mirroring the hierarchical composition of hippocampal place fields (Jung et al., 1994; Kjelstrup et al., 2008).”
Cortical travelling waves: mechanisms and computational principles (2018, background): “Because hippocampal place fields become progressively larger along this axis 141,142 (FIG.”
Synchronized activity between the ventral hippocampus and the medial prefrontal cortex during anxiety (2010, positive): “Recent experiments showing a role for the vHPC in spatial representation (Kjelstrup et al., 2008) suggest how the vHPC might act in anxiety.”
Using Grid Cells for Navigation (2015, background): “Although large place ﬁelds have been recorded ( (cid:1) 10 m; Kjelstrup et al., 2008), these properties clearly limit the utility of place cell representations for large-scale vector navigation.”
Sequence Learning and the Role of the Hippocampus in Rodent Navigation (2012, positive): “Interestingly, place cells with larger fields are found at the temporal (ventral) end of the hippocampus [65,66], and more recently it was shown that place field size and grid field scale increase gradually along the septo-temporal (dorsal–ventral) axis [67,68].”
Cortex and Memory: Emergence of a New Paradigm (2009, background): “…is to reconcile a memory-consolidating role of the hippocampus with its participation, at least in rodents, in the encoding of spatial locations (Kjelstrup et al., 2008; OʼKeefe & Recce, 1993) and olfactory memory (Eichenbaum, Fagan, Mathews, & Cohen, 1988; Staubli, Fraser, Kessler, & Lynch,…”
The neuroscience of learning: beyond the Hebbian synapse. (2013, background): “The sizes of the firing fields for place cells increase as the recording electrode moves from dorsal to ventral within the hippocampus ( Jung et al. 1994, Kjelstrup et al. 2008).”
