本研究揭示了网格细胞(grid cells)在路径整合(path integration)导航任务中的动态编码机制。研究人员通过记录小鼠执行基于自身运动(self-motion)的导航任务时网格细胞的活动，发现这些细胞能在单个试验中切换多个局部参考框架(local reference frames)，通过网格模式平移 ...

Manhattan’s street grid is the savior to many a lost tourist, but navigating it also requires that New Yorkers re-orient the world around themselves (what else is new?). That’s because the grid ...

A mysterious grid of dots spanning several miles of Western China's sand dunes like a giant chessboard may be the result of geological surveys for nickel mines, according to new analysis of satellite ...
