New Neuronal Code Found in Bats Navigating Extra-Large Spaces, Weizmann Institute Scientists Report

Prof. Nachum Ulanovsky and team studied bats navigating a 200-m-long tunnel – and discovered a novel neuronal code for spatial perception. The work showed that place cells behave completely differently when navigating very large spaces.
