The entorhinal cortex contains a network of grid cells that play a fundamental part in the brain's spatial system, supporting tasks such as path integration and spatial memory. In rodents, grid cells are thought to rely on network theta oscillations, but such signals are not evident in all species, challenging our understanding of the physiological basis of the grid network. We analyzed intracranial recordings from neurosurgical patients during virtual navigation to identify oscillatory characte ...[more]
