Functionally distinct high and low theta oscillations in the human hippocampus

A Goyal, J Miller, SE Qasim, AJ Watrous… - Nature …, 2020 - nature.com
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 …

From mechanisms to functions: The role of theta and gamma coherence in the intrahippocampal circuits

I Mysin, L Shubina - Hippocampus, 2022 - Wiley Online Library

Distance-tuned neurons drive specialized path integration calculations in medial entorhinal cortex

MG Campbell, A Attinger, SA Ocko, S Ganguli… - Cell reports, 2021 - cell.com
During navigation, animals estimate their position using path integration and landmarks,
engaging many brain areas. Whether these areas follow specialized or universal cue …

Precisely timed theta oscillations are selectively required during the encoding phase of memory

CR Quirk, I Zutshi, S Srikanth, ML Fu… - Nature …, 2021 - nature.com
Brain oscillations have been hypothesized to support cognitive function by coordinating
spike timing within and across brain regions, yet it is often not known when timing is either …

The direction of theta and alpha travelling waves modulates human memory processing

UR Mohan, H Zhang, B Ermentrout… - Nature Human Behaviour, 2024 - nature.com
To support a range of behaviours, the brain must flexibly coordinate neural activity across
widespread brain regions. One potential mechanism for this coordination is a travelling …

Horizontal cortical connections shape intrinsic traveling waves into feature-selective motifs that regulate perceptual sensitivity

ZW Davis, A Busch, C Steward, L Muller, J Reynolds - Cell reports, 2024 - cell.com
Intrinsic cortical activity forms traveling waves that modulate sensory-evoked responses and
perceptual sensitivity. These intrinsic traveling waves (iTWs) may arise from the coordination …
