title: Time finds its place in the hippocampus.
abstract: In this issue of Neuron, Kraus et al. (2013) show that a population of "time cells" in the hippocampus responds to the passage of time rather than simply reflecting path integration. This study advances our understanding of how time is represented in the hippocampus.
