Differential Impact of Multiple Sensory Deprivation on Spatial-coding Cells in Medial Entorhinal Cortex

Jiayi Tian, Shidan Wen, Yuqian Zhou, Nan Hu, Shuyang Yao, Xuan Zhang, Yuanjing Liu, Yuheng He, Zhouyuan Wang, Chenglin Miao

This study shows that tactile and visual inputs differently affect spatial coding in the MEC, with tactile cues compensating for visual loss in some cell types.
