New article out our from our lab on Angular Head Velocity cells in brainstem areas that project into the head direction circuit. doi.org/10.1523/JNEUROSCI.05… Also congratulations to Patrick LaChance for winning this year's SFN's Lindsley Prize for best thesis in behavioral neurosci.

Delighted to announce that @patrick_lachanc is off to do a post-doc in @HasselmoMichael's lab after successfully defending his PhD on spatial processing in the postrhinal cortex! Best of luck, we can’t wait to see all that you accomplish! 🎉

Happy to share our latest paper on landmark-modulated head direction coding in postrhinal cortex. With @AtchoumJ @TaubeLab science.org/doi/10.1126/scia…

Landmark-modulated directional coding in postrhinal cortex

Postrhinal cortex neurons can convey a head direction signal with multiple peaks that are locked to stable visual landmarks.

Excited to share the final published version of our latest 3D HD cell work, attached here: jneurosci.org/content/40/15/…

Commutative Properties of Head Direction Cells during Locomotion in 3D: Are All Routes Equal?

Navigation often requires movement in three-dimensional (3D) space. Recent studies have postulated two different models for how head direction (HD) cells encode 3D space: the rotational plane...

For anyone out there who has read the Laurens & Angelaki commentary about reinterpreting the data from our paper on 3-D firing in HD cells (see Shinder & Taube, J Neurophysiol, 2019), I encourage you to look at our rebuttal: physiology.org/doi/full/10.1… [J Neurophysiol 122: 1288-89].
