Using paired recordings from rat entorhinal stellate cells and computational modeling, this study shows that stellate cells in the medial entorhinal cortex (MEC) are almost exclusively connected to each other via inhibitory interneurons in an all-or-none style and that stable grid firing can arise from this recurrent inhibitory circuitry within the MEC.
