For 20 years, researchers have studied how light rotates around a longitudinal axis parallel to the direction light travels. But could it move in other ways? After two years of research, and thanks to ...

Studies reveal a gradient in the functional properties of neurons along the transverse axis of hippocampal CA3 and their likely contribution to pattern separation and pattern completion.

Transverse axis - this line runs from left to right through the centre of the body. For example, when a person performs a somersault they rotate around this axis.
