Topic: rodent hippocampal code

Recent empirical studies have revealed spatial tuning in traditionally non-spatial brain regions, as well as coding differences across species in traditionally spatial regions. These findings have in part motivated new models of cognitive mapping that make quantitative predictions at multiple levels of explanation. Taken together, these advances highlight a growing need to quantitatively compare spatial codes across brain regions, species, levels of explanation, and against computational models. To address this need, here we leverage a Representational Similarity Analysis framework to quantita
