Abstract
Entorhinal grid cells are thought to provide a 2D spatial metric of the environment. In this study we demonstrate that in a familiar 1D circular track (i.e., a continuous space) grid cells display a novel 1D equidistant firing pattern based on integrated distance rather than travelled distance or time. In addition, field spacing is increased compared to a 2D open field, probably due to a reduced access to the visual cue in the track. This...
