Working memory is the fundamental function by which we break free from reflexive input-
output reactions to gain control over our own thoughts. It has two types of mechanisms …

What mechanisms underlie flexible inter-areal communication in the cortex? We consider
four mechanisms for temporal coordination and their contributions to communication:(1) …

Episodic memory-based decision-making requires top-down medial prefrontal cortex and
hippocampal interactions. This integrated prefrontal-hippocampal memory state is thought to …

The present review discusses a well-established method for characterizing resting-state
activity of the human brain using multichannel electroencephalography (EEG). This method …

Neural oscillations are ubiquitous across recording methodologies and species, broadly
associated with cognitive tasks, and amenable to computational modelling that investigates …

Elucidating the prefrontal cortical microcircuit has been challenging, given its role in multiple
complex behaviors, including working memory, cognitive flexibility, attention, social …

Recent evidence has demonstrated that environmental sampling is a fundamentally
rhythmic process. Both perceptual sensitivity during covert spatial attention and the …

Classic models of attention suggest that sustained neural firing constitutes a neural correlate
of sustained attention. However, recent evidence indicates that behavioral performance …

Kraepelin, in his early descriptions of schizophrenia (SZ), characterized the illness as having
“an orchestra without a conductor.” Kraepelin further speculated that this “conductor” was …

A major shift is happening within neurophysiology: a population doctrine is drawing level
with the single-neuron doctrine that has long dominated the field. Population-level ideas …
