Sharp wave ripples (SPW‐Rs) represent the most synchronous population pattern in the
mammalian brain. Their excitatory output affects a wide area of the cortex and several …

Over more than a century of research has established the fact that sleep benefits the
retention of memory. In this review we aim to comprehensively cover the field of “sleep and …

The combination of pharmacology and transcranial magnetic stimulation to study the effects
of drugs on TMS-evoked EMG responses (pharmaco-TMS-EMG) has considerably improved …

Background: Abnormal responses to tactile stimuli are a common feature of autism spectrum
disorder (ASD). Several lines of evidence suggest that GABAergic function, which has a …

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is an established neurophysiological tool to
examine the integrity of the fast-conducting corticomotor pathways in a wide range of …

We describe a novel slow oscillation in intracellular recordings from cortical association
areas 5 and 7, motor areas 4 and 6, and visual areas 17 and 18 of cats under various …

Combining transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and electroencephalography (EEG)
constitutes a powerful tool to directly assess human cortical excitability and connectivity …

It is widely recognized that the neural basis of brain function can be fully understood only by
integrating many disciplines at many levels. Studies of synaptic organization are bringing …

Physiological, morphological and immunohistochemical characteristics of non-pyramidal
cells in frontal cortex of young rats were studied in vitro by whole-cell recording and biocytin …

In the mature brain, GABA (γ-aminobutyric acid) functions primarily as an inhibitory
neurotransmitter. But it can also act as a trophic factor during nervous system development …
