Fig. 6

Head direction representational density increases along the dorsoventral axis in MEC layer 3. Each doughnut represents a head direction cell population, and each cell is represented as a circle on the doughnut. The location and size of the circle represent preferred head direction and tuning specificity, respectively. Given populations of equal size (same number of rings; dorsal to ventral as left to right), and the same directional input, ventral populations will have a larger proportion (P) of its cell population be active to any input compared to more dorsal populations due to broader tuning (color gradient shows each cell’s activity level; red is maximum)
