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 …

Epilepsy has been historically seen as a functional brain disorder associated with excessive
synchronization of large neuronal populations leading to a hypersynchronous state. Recent …

Electromagnetic-based methods of stimulating brain activity require invasive procedures or
have other limitations. Deep-brain stimulation requires surgically implanted electrodes …

Local field potentials and the underlying endogenous electric fields (EFs) are traditionally
considered to be epiphenomena of structured neuronal network activity. Recently, however …

There is compelling evidence that sleep contributes to the long-term consolidation of new
memories. This function of sleep has been linked to slow (< 1 Hz) potential oscillations …

Pyramidal cells in the CA1 hippocampal region displayed transient network oscillations (200
hertz) during behavioral immobility, consummatory behaviors, and slow-wave sleep …

The electrochemical processes that underlie neural function manifest themselves in
ceaseless spatiotemporal field fluctuations. However, extracellular fields feed back onto the …

This study investigated the spatial distribution and cellular-synaptic generation of
hippocampal sharp waves (SPW) in the dorsal hippocampus of the awake rat. Depth …

The effects of uniform steady state (DC) extracellular electric fields on neuronal excitability
were characterized in rat hippocampal slices using field, intracellular and voltage‐sensitive …

The general principles governing the nervous control of innate motor acts in vertebrates are
discussed. Particular consideration is given to the control of locomotion in both mammals …
