In this issue of Neuron,Bjerknes et al. (2014) show that cells responding to environmental boundaries (border/boundary cells) are present as soon as rat pups can independently explore their environment. These boundary-based representations may thus provide a scaffold for other, later emerging, spatial representations.
本期《神经元》杂志中，Bjerknes 等人（2014）表明，在幼鼠能够独立探索环境时，就已经存在对环境边界（边界细胞）做出反应的细胞。这些基于边界的表示可能为其他后续出现的空间表示提供了一个框架。
