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...

Anterior and posterior retrosplenial cortex employ distinct strategies for egocentric-allocentric transformation in spatial coding.

This work identifies functional differences along the RSC, where spatial coding transforms from more egocentric in aRSC to more allocentric in pRSC, and defines a specialized RSC to medial entorhinal cortex (MEC) projection pathway that is enriched for these global-tuned, conjunctive neurons.
