So happy to see this published! Lila and I looked at how memory representations of sequences became integrated over time through their shared predictive cues. We had fun thinking about the different aspects of systems consolidation that may play a role in this transformation

Recurrent Inhibitory Dynamics in the Entorhinal Cortex Support Pattern Separation
The entorhinal cortex (EC) provides the major input to the hippocampus (HPC). Numerous computational models on the EC propose that its grid cells serve as a spatial metric, supporting path integration...
