Functional differences in the backward shifts of CA1 and CA3 place fields in novel and familiar environments.

Insight into the processing dynamics and other neurophysiological properties of different hippocampal subfields is critically important for understanding hippocampal function. In this study, we compared shifts in the center of mass (COM) of CA3 and CA1 place fields in a familiar and completely novel...
