Spatial cell firing during virtual navigation of open arenas by head-restrained mice

Spatial cell firing during virtual navigation of open arenas by head-restrained mice

We present a mouse virtual reality (VR) system which restrains head-movements to horizontal rotations, compatible with multi-photon imaging. This system allows expression of the spatial navigation and neuronal firing patterns characteristic of real open arenas (R). Comparing VR to R: place and grid,...
