Episode field and place field sequence replay during sharp-waves (SPWs).
(A) An alternation task maze. Purple: an example episode field sequence. Green: an example place field sequence. Each dot represents the peak of an episode/place field. (B) An example SPW event. …

Characteristics of SPWs before and after medial septum (MS) inactivation.
(A) Example SPW event before (black) and after (blue) the inactivation. (B) Locations of SPW events before (left) and after (right) the inactivation. (C) Frequency of SPW events before (Pre) and …

SPW replay before and after MS inactivation.
(A) Left: Example episode field sequence before (purple) and after (blue/purple) MS inactivation. Right: example SPW sequences correlated with the pre-injection episode field sequence recorded …

Relationship between memory performance and SPW replay.
(A) Relationship between animal performance in the task and percentage of significant sequence replay before (Pre) and after (Musc) MS injection. (B) Frequency of sequence replay before (x-axis) and …

The frequency of theta and SPW sequences during and in between synchronized waves of excitability.
(A) Left: example electrode-signal with theta oscillations. One theta cycle is magnified (red). Right: example SPW event. (B) Left: example sequences generated during individual cycles of theta …

SPW replay of episode cell (left) and place cell (right) sequences during Pre-muscimol and Muscimol recordings.
In this analysis we eliminated all spikes from each burst except for the first one. We did not observe any drop in the prevalence of SPW replay during Muscimol. The chance level (dash line) is …

SPW replay of episode cell (left) and place cell (right) sequences during Pre-muscimol and Muscimol recordings.
In this analysis we shuffled the identity of cells and time stamps but preserved the autocorrelation function of each cell. The chance level (dash line) is determined by the mean of the percentages …

SPW replay of episode cell (left) and place cell (right) sequences during Pre-muscimol and Muscimol recordings.
In this analysis we shuffled the identity of neurons without altering the spike timing. The chance level (dash line) is determined by the mean of the percentages of significant replay observed in …
