Highlights d Two-photon optogenetics in VR enables targeted manipulation of place cell ensembles d Activating specific place cell ensembles drives their spatially associated behavior d Place cell stimulation inhibits endogenous place code expression and triggers remapping d Direct evidence for a causal role of place cells in spatial navigation
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
