The Role of Path Integration on Neural Activity in Hippocampus and Medial Entorhinal Cortex
This thesis explores the role of path integration on the firing of hippocampal place cells and medial entorhinal grid cells. Grid cells fire at equidistant locations in an environment, indicating that they keep track of the distance and direction an animal has moved in an environment. One class of...
