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 …

The function of neural circuits and networks can be controlled, in part, by modulating the
synchrony of their components' activities. Network hypersynchrony and altered oscillatory …

Background Neuronal networks in the brain include glutamatergic principal neurons and
GABAergic interneurons (GABA, γ-aminobutyric acid). The latter may be a minority cell type …

Hippocampal activity is critical for spatial memory. Within a fixed, familiar environment,
hippocampal codes gradually change over timescales of days to weeks—a phenomenon …

Understanding brain circuits begins with an appreciation of their component parts—the cells.
Although GABAergic interneurons are a minority population within the brain, they are crucial …

In the hippocampus GABAergic local circuit inhibitory interneurons represent only~ 10–15%
of the total neuronal population; however, their remarkable anatomical and physiological …

GABAergic inhibitory circuits play an essential role in coordinating various hippocampal
functions. Several decades of work dedicated to a thorough characterization of hippocampal …

One of the most captivating questions in neuroscience revolves around the brain's ability to
efficiently and durably capture and store information. It must process continuous input from …

Hippocampal network operations supporting spatial navigation and declarative memory are
traditionally interpreted in a framework where each hippocampal area, such as the dentate …

Fast-spiking parvalbumin (PV) interneurons are inhibitory interneurons with unique
morphological and functional properties that allow them to precisely control local circuitry …
