Angelo, Wudi, and Kevin’s paper on ‘Replay and representation dynamics in the hippocampus of freely flying bats’ is published today in Nature. Congratulations, Angelo, Wudi, and Kevin!!
Congratulations to Kevin for cracking the mystery of how neural computations in the entorhinal cortex can support 3D navigation! From grid cells to toroidal dynamics, and finally to linking these neural dynamics to the ethological structure of bat behavior. A beautiful example of how studying natural behavior can reveal the computations the brain evolved to perform. A Two-Dimensional Grid-Cell Code for Three-Dimensional Navigation in Freely Flying Bats.
