EunHye's head-direction cell paper out in Neuron

Congratulations EunHye - a massive and difficult study to complete

We find that that the direction sense as measured by head-direction ensemble discharge is internally-organized, and intermittently registered to distinct environmental features, more like in etak navigation than in a GPS with a consistently anchored compass. The data just would not make sense until we abandoned the conventional 2-D spatial map framework! It is a good think that Jim rank gave me that "We the navigators book back about 1993 and it is lucky I opened it some time in 2012! Thanks to Jim and the genius navigators of the Caroline Islands.
