Although the hippocampus plays a crucial role in encoding and retrieval of contextually
mediated episodic memories, considerable controversy surrounds the role of the …

Functional imaging of human cortex implicates a diverse network of brain regions supporting
working memory—the capacity to hold and manipulate information for short periods of time …

Gamma oscillations (40–120 Hz), usually associated with waking functions, can be recorded
in the deepest stages of sleep in animals. The full details of their large-scale coordination …

Episodic memories hinge upon our ability to process a wide range of multisensory
information and bind this information into a coherent, memorable representation. On a …

This mini-symposium summarizes recent findings concerning the role of brain oscillations in
human cognition. Two rhythms that show particularly strong behavioral correlates are the 4 …

The hippocampal formation is believed to be critical for the encoding, consolidation, and
retrieval of episodic memories. Yet, how these processes are supported by the anatomically …

To test the hypothesis that neural oscillations synchronize to mediate memory encoding, we
analyzed electrocorticographic recordings taken as 68 human neurosurgical patients …

For decades, hippocampal gamma was thought to be a single type of rhythm with a
continuously varying frequency. However, an increasing body of evidence supports a new …

Intracranial high-frequency activity (HFA), which refers to fast fluctuations in
electrophysiological recordings, increases during memory processing. Two views have …

Neuronal oscillations in the rat hippocampus relate to both memory and locomotion, raising
the question of how these cognitive and behavioral correlates interact to determine the …
