My first first-author paper is now out in Cell Reports 😊 Next step, PhD viva in <3 weeks 🤠

🚨 New preprint! How do CA1 place cells build a brand-new spatial map when the animal enters a novel environment? We combined ensemble recordings with optogenetic silencing of direct entorhinal input to CA1, to uncover this pathway's role in remapping. Thread from Oscar below! 🐭

I’m excited to share our latest preprint, and the main work from my PhD, on the role of the direct entorhinal input in hippocampus CA1 spatial coding. 1/9

The Moser Group is presenting our work on Wednesday afternoon at #FENS2026! •Mechanism for L-R sweeps •Attention modulation of sweeps •Grid/place remapping rules & dynamics •”Mega torus” as a hi-capacity memory space •Moving the grid bump •Development of tori & rings •RSC/HC pops. in a spatial task

1/7 🧠 My journey into development begins with this work and question: how does the brain's spatial navigation system develop? We found that the neural networks for spatial navigation (tori and rings) are preconfigured and only later anchor gradually to the world with experience! 🧵

Fantastic opportunity to do pioneering single-unit recordings from the HUMAN hippocampus and other parts of the brain, with @jorgen-sugar.bsky.social at @uio.no, Norway.

Happy belated publication of some of my PhD work! Building on our findings that grid field firing rate changes can cause hippocampal remapping and memory impairment, here we show that this effect has a fixed input-output relationship, and we can even predict how place cells will remap!

My first first-author paper is on bioRxiv! Here we ask whether the same subset of neurons in ACC always display object correlates during extensive familiarisation to 2 objects. A short 🧵1/10
