Coding the distance to a future goal is an important function of a neural system supporting navigation. While some evidence indicates the hippocampus increases activity with proximity to the goal, others have found activity to decrease with proximity. To explore goal distance coding in the hippocampus we recorded from CA1 hippocampal place cells in rats as they navigated to learned goals in an event...
For the sake of rigorous control of task variables, hippocampal place cells have been usually studied in relatively simple environments. To approach the situation of real‐life navigation in an urban‐like environment, we recorded CA1 place cells while rats performance a memory task in a “Townmaze” with two start locations, three alternate paths in the maze midsection, followed by a two‐way choice that...
