They are a type of place cell and play an important role in spatial navigation. Grid cells are characterized by their firing patterns, which form a hexagonal lattice in the environment they inhabit. They can also be thought of as a type of spatial map in the brain, helping animals to remember the locations of different objects and navigate their environment. Grid cells are thought to be involved in a variety of cognitive processes, including memory, learning, and navigation. ![by francis bacon, escher, mystical photography evocative. an fractal concrete brutalist carved sculpture, standing in a city center. ](https://lexica-serve-encoded-images.sharif.workers.dev/md/08767893-0d05-4347-ab0a-1dd55f65ba94) ![[Screenshot 2023-01-08 at 19.35.12.png]]
