The phase of cortical activity, measured in the gray matter, is organized at multiple spatial scales, with the largest scales explaining most variance in phase at a given temporal frequency.
Direct presynaptic patch-clamp recording and fluorescent imaging of the vesicular release demonstrate that a non-canonical cannabinoid receptor GPR55 deprives readily releasable vesicles of competency in cerebellar Purkinje cell axons.
Patterns of neural activity called theta oscillations have a role in memory encoding but – contrary to current thinking – do not appear to have a role in memory retrieval.
