Transformation of a Spatial Map across the Hippocampal-Lateral Septal Circuit

Transformation of a Spatial Map across the Hippocampal-Lateral Septal Circuit
David Tingley, György Buzsáki
Neuron
The hippocampus constructs a map of the environment. How this “cognitive map” is utilized by other brain regions to guide behavior remains unexplored. To examine how neuronal firing patterns in the hippocampus are transmitted and transformed, we recorded neurons in its principal subcortical target, the lateral septum (LS). We observed that LS neurons carry reliable spatial information in the phase of action potentials, relative to hippocampal theta oscillations, while the firing rates of LS neurons remained uninformative.
