The emperor's new wardrobe: rebalancing diversity of animal models in neuroscience research
MM Yartsev - Science, 2017 - science.org
… This species was chosen because of the huge size of its giant axon (~1 mm in diameter),
which allowed recording of electrical potentials along most of the axon. The successful …

Grid cells without theta oscillations in the entorhinal cortex of bats
MM Yartsev, MP Witter, N Ulanovsky - Nature, 2011 - nature.com
Grid cells provide a neural representation of space, by discharging when an animal traverses
through the vertices of a periodic hexagonal grid spanning the environment 1 . Although …

Representation of three-dimensional space in the hippocampus of flying bats
MM Yartsev, N Ulanovsky - Science, 2013 - science.org
Many animals, on air, water, or land, navigate in three-dimensional (3D) environments, yet it
remains unclear how brain circuits encode the animal's 3D position. We recorded single …
