A sense of space in postrhinal cortex

Patrick A. LaChance; Travis P. Todd; Jeffrey S. Taube

<jats:p>A topographic representation of local space is critical for navigation and spatial memory. In humans, topographic spatial learning relies upon the parahippocampal cortex, damage to which renders patients unable to navigate their surroundings or develop new spatial representations. Stable spatial signals have not yet been observed in its rat homolog, the postrhinal cortex. We recorded from single neurons in the rat postrhinal cortex whose firing reflects an animal’s egocentric relationship to the geometric center of the local environment, as well as the animal’s head direction in an allocentric reference frame. Combining these firing correlates revealed a population code for a stable topographic map of local space. This may form the basis for higher-order spatial maps such as those seen in the hippocampus and entorhinal cortex.</jats:p>
