Abstract: |
Medial entorhinal
grid cells and hippocampal place cells provide
neural correlates of spatial representation in the brain. A place cell typically
fires whenever an animal is present in one or more spatial regions, or
places, of an environment. A grid cell typically fires in multiple spatial
regions that form a regular hexagonal grid structure extending throughout the
environment. Different grid and place cells prefer spatially offset regions,
with their firing fields increasing in size along the dorsoventral
axes of the medial entorhinal cortex and
hippocampus. The spacing between neighboring fields for a grid cell also
increases along the dorsoventral axis. |
