Place cell maps slowly develop via competitive learning and conjunctive coding in the dentate gyrus

Place cells in the hippocampus fire action potentials at spatially selective firing fields that collectively map the environments. Here, the authors show how these activity patterns develop with experience in mice and determine the importance of competitive learning in this process.
