dorsocaudal medial entorhinal cortex(English)

  • neurons in this regions fire in several locations in an environment, with the locations forming a regular pattern as though they were nodes on a triangular grid. Different ‘grid’ cells recorded at the same locations in the medial entorhinal cortex have the same grid spacing and orientation relative to the environment. They differ however in the location of the nodes such that the firing peaks of one neuron are slightly shifted from those of its neighbor, that is there is a spatial phase shift between neurons
