Theta frequency (4–8 Hz) fluctuations of the local field potential have long been implicated
in learning and memory. Human studies of episodic memory, however, have provided mixed …

The hippocampal local field potential (LFP) shows three major types of rhythms: theta, sharp
wave–ripples and gamma. These rhythms are defined by their frequencies, they have …

We would like to thank our families for their patience and understanding as we took time off
to work on this book. We dedicate this book to Dr. Howard Eichenbaum, a leader in the field …

Humans respond cognitively and emotionally to the built environment. The modern
possibility of recording the neural activity of subjects during exposure to environmental …

Theories on the functions of the hippocampal system are based largely on two fundamental
discoveries: the amnestic consequences of removing the hippocampus and associated …

Although the perirhinal cortex (PRC), parahippocampal cortex (PHC) and retrosplenial
cortex (RSC) have an essential role in memory, the precise functions of these areas are …

Objective: Meditation is one type of mental training that has been shown to produce many
cognitive benefits. Meditation practice is associated with improvement in concentration and …

Everyday tasks in social settings require humans to encode neural representations of not
only their own spatial location, but also the location of other individuals within an …

Place-modulated activity among neurons in the hippocampal formation presents a means to
organize contextual information in the service of memory formation and recall,. One …

We observed robust coupling between the high-and low-frequency bands of ongoing
electrical activity in the human brain. In particular, the phase of the low-frequency theta (4 to …
