Topic: spatial locations

Two aspects of hippocampal temporal coding during behaviour have come to dominate theories of hippocampal function: phase precession at the single-cell level, and theta sequences at the population level. Both their significance for memory functions as much as their connection to specific network dynamics and to each other, remain matter for speculation. Here we address these questions by taking advantage of simultaneous recordings of population activity and layer-specific LFP dynamics in the CA1 region. What we find is that these two phenomena are largely segregated both at the spatial and at
