Retrospective Grid Cells in the Medial Entorhinal Cortex Encode Past Paths During Spatial Navigation
ABSTRACT Neurons dynamically switch between prospective and retrospective coding depending on task demands. Prospective coding optimizes future actions, while retrospective coding helps learn from past experiences. The grid cells in the medial entorhinal cortex (MEC) play a key role in spatial navigation, with periodic...
