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

The idea that synchronous neural activity underlies cognition has driven an extensive body
of research in human and animal neuroscience. Yet, insufficient data on intracranial …

This article tries to integrate results in memory research from divergent disciplines such as
cognitive psychology, neuroanatomy, and neurophysiology. The integrating link is seen in …

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 …

Cognitive functions not only depend on the localization of neural activity, but also on the
precise temporal pattern of activity in neural assemblies. Synchronization of action potential …

Episodic memories are rich in sensory information and often contain integrated information
from different sensory modalities. For instance, we can store memories of a recent concert …

We analyzed intracranial brain activity recorded from human participants during the
performance of a working-memory task. We show that 6–13 Hz activity exhibits consistent …

One functional aspect of theta oscillations that recent studies have begun to explore in
humans is their role for the recollection of personal events. A specific role of theta for …

It is well established that the occurrence of theta rhythm in the hippocampus is important in a
variety of mnemonic tasks. However, in this review it will be argued that theta-rhythmic …

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