Primes¶
- Remapping
- The switch is discrete: as the cue crosses a recognition threshold, the population flips between maps within a few hundred milliseconds rather than morphing gradually — experimentally visible as a sharp transition when the enclosure is slowly deformed from A's shape toward B's.
This sourceShows discrete, attractor-like transitions between stored maps as an enclosure is morphed between two shapes.

Wills et al. show place cells abruptly and simultaneously switching between square and circle maps across a series of morphed enclosures, but not a flip within a few hundred milliseconds.
“Almost all of the cells abruptly switched from the square-like to the circle-like pattern at the same transition point.”

Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
