Population representation of spatial memories in hippocampus exhibits complex spatio-temporal dynamics. It is likely that understanding mechanistic origin of this dynamics and link to animal behaviour is the key to understanding the code. To this end we investigate the role of gamma synchronization dynamics across entorhino-hippocampal system and ongoing exploratory behaviour of the rat as dynamics contributors to the population coding in hippocampus. We show how dynamic changes in gamma synchronization and exploratory behaviour affect hippocampal activity.
