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 …

Standard models of episodic memory focus on hippocampal–parahippocampal interactions,
with the neocortex supplying sensory information and providing a final repository of …

Neural oscillations in the theta band (4–8 Hz) are prominent in the human
electroencephalogram (EEG), and many recent electrophysiological studies in animals and …

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 …

Integration of separate memories forms the basis of inferential reasoning—an essential
cognitive process that enables complex behavior. Considerable evidence suggests that both …

Research on speech processing is often focused on a phenomenon termed “entrainment”,
whereby the cortex shadows rhythmic acoustic information with oscillatory activity …

The traditional belief is that brain oscillations are important for human long-term memory,
because they induce synchronized firing between cell assemblies which shapes synaptic …

Dream experience (DE) represents a fascinating condition linked to emotional processes
and the human inner world. Although the overlap between REM sleep and dreaming has …

Primates explore the visual world through the use of saccadic eye movements. Neuronal
activity in the hippocampus, a structure known to be essential for memory, is modulated by …

Neural oscillations play an important role in the integration and segregation of brain regions
that are important for brain functions, including pain. Disturbances in oscillatory activity are …
