This study shows that environmental enrichment increases flexibility of CA3 memory representations by enhancing spatial tuning, firing rates, and remapping of place cells.

The paper shows that distal CA1 place cells in rats have more precise and object-responsive spatial representations compared to proximal CA1.

This study identifies fan cells in layer 2 of the lateral entorhinal cortex as critical for object-place-context memory, with their inactivation causing deficits similar to early Alzheimer's disease.
