The difference between an expert’s brain and a novice’s
When mice learn to do a new task, their brain activities change over time as they advance from ‘novice’ to ‘expert.’ The changes are reflected in the wiring of cell circuits and activities of neurons. Using a two-photon imaging microscope…
Virtual ‘moonwalk’ for science reveals distortions in spatial memory
In order to remember where important events happened, or how to get from A to B, our brains form mental “maps” of our environment. An important component of these mental maps are the so-called grid cells. Different grid cells are…
