Brain activity during sleep is characterized by circuit-specific oscillations, including slow
waves, spindles and theta waves, which are nested in thalamocortical or hippocampal …

We revisit recent evidence showing that nasal respiration entrains oscillations at the same
frequency as breathing in several regions of the rodent brain. Moreover, respiration …

Consolidation of declarative memories requires hippocampal-neocortical communication.
Although experimental evidence supports the role of sharp-wave ripples in transferring …

Sleep disturbances frequently occur in neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism, but
the developmental role of sleep is largely unexplored, and a causal relationship between …

While non-REM (NREM) sleep has been strongly implicated in the reactivation and
consolidation of memory traces, the role of rapid-eye movement (REM) sleep remains …

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating neurodegenerative disease,
characterized by the death of upper (UMN) and lower motor neurons (LMN) in the motor …

Neural networks display the ability to transform forward-ordered activity patterns into reverse-
ordered, retrospective sequences. The mechanisms underlying this transformation remain …

Theta oscillations (4–12 Hz) are thought to provide a common temporal reference for the
exchange of information among distant brain networks. On the other hand, faster gamma …

Highlights•The state of thalamocortical activity strongly influences sensory processing.•The
cellular and network mechanisms of three types of oscillation are presented.•Slow waves …

Different types of network oscillations occur in different behavioral, cognitive, or vigilance
states. The rodent hippocampus expresses prominent θ oscillations at frequencies between …
