    Speech encoding by coupled cortical theta and gamma oscillations

    Alexandre Hyafil, Lorenzo Fontolan ... Anne-Lise Giraud
    Computational modelling shows that coupled theta and gamma oscillations in the auditory cortex can decompose speech into its syllabic constituents, and organize the neural spiking at faster timescale into a decodable format.

    Excitatory motor neurons are local oscillators for backward locomotion

    Shangbang Gao, Sihui Asuka Guan ... Mei Zhen
    Motor neurons are rhythm generators for backward locomotion.

    Network oscillation rules imposed by species-specific electrical coupling

    Stefanos Stagkourakis, Carolina Thörn Pérez ... Christian Broberger
    An unexpected species difference in electrical coupling of analogous neuroendocrine dopamine neurons in rats and mice reveals a role for gap junction connectivity as a band-pass filter for oscillation frequency in neural networks.

    Persistence, period and precision of autonomous cellular oscillators from the zebrafish segmentation clock

    Alexis B Webb, Iván M Lengyel ... Andrew C Oates
    Time-lapse recording and theoretical analysis of individual cells isolated from the zebrafish segmentation clock reveal that they behave as self-sustained, autonomous oscillators with distinctive noisy dynamics.

    Theta oscillations locked to intended actions rhythmically modulate perception

    Alice Tomassini, Luca Ambrogioni ... Eric Maris
    Theta oscillations synchronize perception with the emerging motor intention in an automatic and task-independent way.

    Beta band oscillations in motor cortex reflect neural population signals that delay movement onset

    Preeya Khanna, Jose M Carmena
    Using a sequential neurofeedback-arm reaching task, a new link is established among population neural activity patterns, generation of beta oscillations, and motor behavior changes.

    Somatostatin interneurons activated by 5-HT2A receptor suppress slow oscillations in medial entorhinal cortex

    Roberto de Filippo, Benjamin R Rost ... Dietmar Schmitz
    Somatostatin interneurons are novel mediators of serotonergic modulation in entorhinal cortex via activation of 5-HT2A receptors, a receptor involved in the etiology of different psychiatric disorders.

    An oscillating computational model can track pseudo-rhythmic speech by using linguistic predictions

    Sanne ten Oever, Andrea E Martin
    An oscillating computational model combined with a predictive internal linguistic model can track naturally timed speech in which pseudo-rhythmicity is related to the predictability of words within their sentence context.

    Learning improves decoding of odor identity with phase-referenced oscillations in the olfactory bulb

    Justin Losacco, Daniel Ramirez-Gordillo ... Diego Restrepo
    Tetrode recordings show that the amplitude of gamma oscillations encodes for information on contextual odorant identity when observed at the peak phase of the theta oscillation in the olfactory bulb.

    On cross-frequency phase-phase coupling between theta and gamma oscillations in the hippocampus

    Robson Scheffer-Teixeira, Adriano BL Tort
    Phase-locking of hippocampal theta and gamma waves has been proposed to support memory formation, but an analysis using robust statistical methods finds no convincing evidence for the phenomenon.
