Sharp wave ripples (SPW‐Rs) represent the most synchronous population pattern in the
mammalian brain. Their excitatory output affects a wide area of the cortex and several …

Neuronal activity in the brain gives rise to transmembrane currents that can be measured in
the extracellular medium. Although the major contributor of the extracellular signal is the …

Understanding how individual neurons integrate the thousands of synaptic inputs they
receive is critical to understanding how the brain works. Modeling studies in silico and …

A basic feature of intelligent systems such as the cerebral cortex is the ability to freely
associate aspects of perceived experience with an internal representation of the world and …

A consortium of inhibitory neurons control the firing patterns of pyramidal cells, but their
specific roles in the behaving animal are largely unknown. We performed simultaneous …

Theta oscillations represent the" on-line" state of the hippocampus. The extracellular
currents underlying theta waves are generated mainly by the entorhinal input, CA3 …

How does the brain orchestrate perceptions, thoughts and actions from the spiking activity of
its neurons? Early single-neuron recording research treated spike pattern variability as …

To understand how function arises from the interactions between neurons, it is necessary to
use methods that allow the monitoring of brain activity at the single-neuron, single-spike …

▪ Abstract Correlated spiking of pre-and postsynaptic neurons can result in strengthening or
weakening of synapses, depending on the temporal order of spiking. Recent findings …

Pyramidal neurons in layer 5 of the neocortex of the brain extend their axons and dendrites
into all layers. They are also unusual in having both an axonal and a dendritic zone for the …
