And that saying is that genetics loads the gun, but the
environment
pulls the trigger.
Because what I feel, is a lot of us think that the
environment

in mind.
So it seems crazy, but the model that we have right now is taking those machines that were designed for that first
environment
that I showed you and donating or selling them to hospitals in this
environment.
It's also designed for the

And scientists have begun to understand how spatial memory works by recording from individual neurons in rats or mice while they forage or explore an
environment
looking for food.
So what we see is that this neuron knows whenever the rat has gone into one particular place in its
environment.
And if we record from lots of different neurons, we'll see that different neurons fire when the animal goes in different parts of its environment, like in this square box shown here.
So together they form a map for the rest of the brain, telling the brain continually, "Where am I now within my environment?"

And then, if we put them back in the environment, generally they're quite good at putting a marker down where they thought that flag or their car was.
But on some trials, we could change the shape and size of the
environment
like we did with the place cell.
In that case, we can see how where they think the flag had been changes as a function of how you change the shape and size of the
environment.
And what you see, for example, if the flag was where that cross was in a small square environment, and then if you ask people where it was, but you've made the
environment
bigger, where they think the flag had been stretches out in exactly the same way that the place cell firing stretched out.
But now as the rat explores around, each individual cell fires in a whole array of different locations which are laid out across the
environment
in an amazingly regular triangular grid.
And as it moves around, the electrical activity can pass from one of these cells to the next cell to keep track of where it is, so that it can use its own movements to know where it is in its
environment.
