Stellate Cells in the Medial Entorhinal Cortex Are Required for Spatial Learning

Summary: Spatial learning requires estimates of location that may be obtained by path integration or from positional cues. Grid and other spatial firing patterns of neurons in the superficial medial entorhinal cortex (MEC) suggest roles in behavioral estimation of location. However, distinguishing t...
