Prospective and retrospective representations of saccadic movements in primate prefrontal cortex

Key Points

• Saccadic movements are processed through both prospective and retrospective representations in the prefrontal cortex, indicating dual pathways.
• The neural representation of saccadic movements shows distinct patterns, with significant implications for understanding primate cognition.
• Observational analysis across multiple experimental setups highlights the intricate neural interactions involved in eye movement control.
• These findings may enhance our understanding of attention and decision-making processes within the primate brain.
