It's as if you remember where the flag was by storing the pattern of firing across all of your place cells at that location, and then you can get back to that location by moving around so that you best match the current pattern of firing of your place cells with that stored pattern.
É coma se lembrásedes onde estaba a bandeira gardando o patrón de disparos  a través das células de lugar nesa posición, e puidésedes volver á posición movéndovos ata facer coincidir o padrón actual das células de lugar co outro padrón almacenado.
