Visual landmarks sharpen grid cell metric and confer context specificity to neurons of the medial entorhinal cortex

Neurons of the medial entorhinal cortex (MEC) provide spatial representations critical for navigation. In this network, the periodic firing fields of grid cells act as a metric element for position. The location of the grid firing fields depends on interactions between self-motion information, geome...
