Neuroscience: How Is Three-Dimensional Space Encoded in the Brain?
نویسنده
چکیده
A recent study in the rat has shown that hippocampal place cells and entorhinal grid cells exhibit vertically-elongated firing fields, indicating that the rat's brain may encode the animal's elevation less accurately than its horizontal position.

Performance and development are based on hard work, experience and learning. Learning how to change different behaviors is crucial to successful talent management plans. Within the brain there are complex connected circuits that can identify threats. The brain reacts to change as a threat. There is also a collection of brain structures tied to a natural reward system that are involved in the re...
متن کاملA topology control algorithm for autonomous underwater robots in three-dimensional space using PSO
Recently, data collection from seabed by means of underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSN) has attracted considerable attention. Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) are increasingly used as UWSNs in underwater missions. Events and environmental parameters in underwater regions have a stochastic nature. The target area must be covered by sensors to observe and report events. A ‘topology cont...

Glioblastoma is one of the most common primary brain tumors (80% of patients) that has a poor prognosis due to malignancy. Glioblastoma has an annual incidence of 5.26 per 100 000 population or 17 000 new diagnoses per year and so as the population aging, the number of patients is expected to increase. There is a growing body of literature investigating the tumor microenvironmenta...
