Distinct medial septal GABAergic pathways differentially regulate spatial memory and network activity

The paper identifies distinct septal GABAergic pathways regulated by PV+ and CB+ neurons, showing they differentially support spatial memory and network activity.

Prior experience dynamically determines differential cue weighting in the medial entorhinal cortex

The paper shows that prior experience influences how mice weigh spatial cues in the medial entorhinal cortex, with stable firing fields maintained only when previous light experience ensured coherent cue relationships.

Shared early impairments of medial entorhinal cortex function across distinct Alzheimer's disease etiologies

This study identifies shared early impairments in spatial context representation in the medial entorhinal cortex across two distinct Alzheimer's disease mouse models.

Oxytocin facilitates social behavior of female rats via selective modulation of interneurons in the medial prefrontal cortex

This study identifies a circuit in the medial prefrontal cortex where oxytocin modulates interneurons to promote social behavior in female rats, even under physiological stress.

Grid cells perform path integration in multiple reference frames during self-motion-based navigation

This study shows grid cells in mice use path integration and switch reference frames during navigation, with movement direction encoded in drifting grid patterns.

Spatial transcriptomics map of the embryonic mouse brain: a tool to explore neurogenesis

The paper creates a spatial transcriptomics map of the embryonic mouse brain to explore neurogenesis by integrating single-cell RNAseq data and identifying cell type-specific transcriptional signatures.

Distinct spatial maps and multiple object codes in the lateral entorhinal cortex

This study identifies distinct spatial maps and multiple object codes in the lateral entorhinal cortex, showing both separate and conjunctive coding of space and objects.

Septal GABAergic Inputs to CA1 Govern Contextual Memory Retrieval

This study shows that septal GABAergic inputs to CA1 promote contextual fear memory by blocking parvalbumin interneuron activation and facilitating Erk/MAP-kinase signaling in pyramidal cells during retrieval.
