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.

Precisely tracking the anatomical sources of neural computations infers functional directed connectivity between hippocampal memory neurons and cortical sensory neurons, it reveals information flowing from cortex to hippocampus during encoding but the reverse direction during maintenance.

A fast spiking interneuron sub-type in medial and lateral prefrontal cortex fires and gamma-synchronizes prominently during adaptive learning of reward values when outcomes are uncertain and choice options have similar values.

Neural spiking throughout the MTL is synchronous with hippocampal theta phase during spatial memory and navigation experiments in humans, even after controlling for phase-coupling to local theta oscillations.

An experimentally supported model of grid cells naturally enables them to participate in firing sequences that encode rapid trajectories in space.

Striatal neurons preferentially fire at specific phases of the gait cycle, and the strength of gait encoding is selectively increased in indirect pathway neurons following dopamine lesions.

Building on previous work (Metzen et al., 2016), a combination of neurophysiological and behavioral approaches reveals that changes in the background strongly impacts invariant coding and perception of behaviourally relevant signals.

Prospective navigational goals are represented by single neuron firing rates and firing relative to slow oscillatory phase (phase coding) in the human medial temporal lobe.

Gamma-band synchronization behavior in area V1 was predicted by weakly coupled oscillator principles.

Electrocorticography (ECoG) reveals that phase-amplitude coupling relates to phase-dependent coding in the human brain.
