Evaluating Place Cell Detection Methods in Rats and Humans – Implications for Cross-Species Spatial Coding

2025-09-03

Abstract excerpt

Place cells, first identified in the rat hippocampus as neurons that fire selectively at specific locations, are central to investigations of the neural underpinnings of spatial navigation. With recent work with human patients, identifying and characterizing place cells across species has become increasingly important for understanding the extent to which decades of rodent research generalize to humans and uncover...
