Deep layer neurons in the rat medial entorhinal cortex fire sparsely irrespective of spatial novelty
Extracellular recordings in medial entorhinal cortex have revealed the existence of spatially-modulated firing patterns, which are thought to contribute to a cognitive map of external space. Previous work indicated that during exploration of novel environments, spiking activity in deep entorhinal la...
