Hippocampal and orbitofrontal neurons contribute to complementary aspects of associative structure
Lin, H., & Zhou, J#.
Nature Communications, 2024, 15, 5283.
This study demonstrates that hippocampal and orbitofrontal neurons uniquely and complementarily encode different aspects of learned associations between environmental stimuli by performing calcium imaging on head-fixed mice throughout learning.
Event-specific and persistent representations for contextual states in orbitofrontal neurons
Ma, F., Zhang, L., & Zhou, J#.
Current Biology, 2024, 34(5), 1023-1033.
Ma et al. find individual orbitofrontal neurons encode contextual states, dissociable from distracting sensory stimuli but dynamically changing selectivity upon the transition of task events. However, persistent codes for the current contextual state are found within particular neural subspaces.
