Does human episodic memory 🧠 depend on context-invariant or conjunctive coding of single neurons in the human hippocampus?

A recent TiCS (https://www.cell.com/trends/cognitive-sciences/fulltext/S1364-6613(25)00031-2) paper stimulated a very interesting debate about the nature of hippocampal coding in human episodic memory that i found very insightful.

The discussion centers around context-invariant coding of concept neurons (CN) vs. conjunctive coding of episode-specific neurons (ESN) in the hippocampus, both following different lines of thinking about the HCs involvement in episodic memory.

😵‍💫Ever Felt Dizzy Standing Up? Let’s Talk Orthostatic Tolerance!

🚨Orthostatic tolerance = the body’s ability to handle posture changes without dizziness or fatigue. Vital for older adults. Essential for independence.

💪🏾Watch my 65+ online client do Pushups → Landmine Pivot & Press. What looks like a simple combo is much more.

✅Training smart is training with purpose.

📣Coach Tip: Laughter is the most underreported and accessible way to enhance your quality of life.😅

✅ #Fun fact: #Laughter rewires the brain, boosts your immune system, and deepens human connection. You don’t need a #gym membership, fancy supplements, or a five-step morning routine—just a reason to laugh.

And hey, there’s no shame in being the person who laughs a little too loudly. That might be exactly what someone else needs today.🤣
