Neuroprosthetics is a multidisciplinary field at the interface between neurosciences and
biomedical engineering, which aims at replacing or modulating parts of the nervous system …

Information that is congruent with existing knowledge (a schema) is usually better
remembered than less congruent information. Only recently, however, has the role of …

Emotional arousal enhances perception and memory of high-priority information but impairs
processing of other information. Here, we propose that, under arousal, local glutamate levels …

The theta rhythm is one of the largest and most sinusoidal activity patterns in the brain. Here
I survey progress in the field of theta rhythms research. I present arguments supporting the …

Theta oscillations synchronize the basolateral amygdala (BLA) with the hippocampus (HPC)
and medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) during fear expression. The role of gamma-frequency …

The hippocampus, a structure required for many types of memory, connects to the medial
prefrontal cortex, an area that helps direct neuronal information streams during intentional …

The rodent medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) is critical for spatial working memory (SWM), but
the underlying neural processes are incompletely understood. During SWM tasks, neural …

The hippocampus is thought to promote gradual incorporation of novel information into long-
term memory by binding, reactivating, and strengthening distributed cortical-cortical …

Signals related to fear memory and extinction are processed within brain pathways involving
the lateral amygdala (LA) for formation of aversive stimulus associations, the CA1 area of the …

Mnemonic persistent activity in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) constitutes the neural basis of
working memory. To understand how neuromodulators contribute to the generation of …
