Differential influences of environment and self-motion on place and grid cell firing, Published online: 07 February 2019; doi:10.1038/s41467-019-08550-1

Place cells and grid cells are known to encode spatial information about an animal's location relative to the surrounding environment. Here, the authors show that place cells predominantly encode environmental sensory inputs, while grid cell activity reflects a greater influence of physical motion.
