GABAergic inhibitory circuits play an essential role in coordinating various hippocampal
functions. Several decades of work dedicated to a thorough characterization of hippocampal …

Episodic memory relies on the hippocampus, a heterogeneous brain region with distinct
functions. Spatial representations in the dorsal hippocampus (dHPC) are crucial for …

Light-based in-vivo brain imaging relies on light transport over large distances of highly
scattering tissues. Scattering gradually reduces imaging contrast and resolution, making it …

Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep is a sleep state characterized by skeletal muscle
paralysis and cerebral cortical activation. Yet, global cortical dynamics and their role in …

Based on rodent models, researchers have theorized that the hippocampus supports
episodic memory and navigation via the theta oscillation, a~ 4–10 Hz rhythm that …

The lateral septum (LS) has been implicated in a wide variety of functions, including
emotional, motivational, and spatial behavior, and the LS may regulate interactions between …

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), a critical member of the neurotrophic family, plays
an important role in multiple stress-related mental disorders. Although alterations in BDNF in …

Hippocampal theta oscillations orchestrate faster beta-to-gamma oscillations facilitating the
segmentation of neural representations during navigation and episodic memory. Supra …

The concept of a dynamic excitation/inhibition balance tuned by circuit disinhibition, which
can shape information flow during complex behavioral tasks, has arisen as an important and …

Traumatic events result in vivid and enduring fear memories. Suppressing the retrieval of
these memories is central to behavioral therapies for pathological fear. The medial prefrontal …
