the one thing about place cells...has anyone else published anything major with them, or has it just been O'Keefe and the Mosers for the past 50 years?


Are you familiar with Numenta and Hawkins? Place and grid cells are very important to their theory.


Wow this is really interesting! I wonder how making the environmental detection more of a continuous area would change things.
