23. The trajectory of a rat could be decoded from the ensemble activity of eight simultaneously recorded cells in the dorsolateral band (21) (movie S1). We compared the result from Bayesian decoding with a simple null model (random walk). Including unit activity in the decoding on average improved the prediction by a factor of 5.15 (21).

26. This does not preclude that storage and retrieval of location are further facilitated by the transformation to single-field spatial representations in the hippocampus.
27. The reduction in spatial coherence, dispersedness, and multidirectionality may point to a role for reverberation through the entorhinal-hippocampal circuit (42) in refinement of firing fields in MEC, but the effects might also merely reflect global deafferentation and de-efferentation of the recorded MEC neurons.

39. A specific involvement of the hippocampus in orthogonalization of cortical input patterns is consistent with the near absence of silent cells in the MEC sample (21).
