May-Britt Moser and Edvard Moser shared the 2014 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine with John O'Keefe for their discoveries of cells (grid and place cells, respectively) that subserve the brain's internal positioning system.
In this model, a three-dimensional simulation domain consisted of cell grids representing individual cells and nutrient grids representing nutrient concentrations.
This achieves the shared goals of smoothing techniques such as kernel density [48] and cell gridding.
Each cell grid consists of a cell and culture medium.
When the grid (k, l) is a cell grid, M w k, l′ and G w k, l′ are set as diffusion coefficients leading signals in (i, j) to grid (k, l).
These circuits contain cells with remarkable responses to spatial variables, and include head-direction cells, grid cells, and place cells.

Moser, E. I., Kropff, E. & Moser, M. B. Place cells, grid cells, and the brain's spatial representation system.
Space, and events associated with places and spaces, are represented in the brain by a circuitry made of place cells, head direction cells, grid cells, and border cells.
