    Microglia aging in the hippocampus advances through intermediate states that drive activation and cognitive decline

    Jeremy M Shea, Saul A Villeda
    During aging, microglia progress through intermediate cellular states, including stress response and translation upregulation states, that modulate subsequent activation and impact cognitive decline.

    Leveraging place field repetition to understand positional versus nonpositional inputs to hippocampal field CA1

    William Hockeimer, Ruo-Yah Lai ... James J Knierim
    Place cells that show repeating place fields in geometrically similar locations of an environment modulate their firing rates differently in each field based on movement direction.
