Sharp wave ripples (SWRs) reactivate hippocampal activity patterns during memory consolidation, but whether they recruit cFos engram cells is unclear. We tagged CA1 neurons activated during sequential...

This open access book explores navigation across species using a multidisciplinary approach to address challenges in research and clinical applications.

High-density single-neuron recordings in patients with epilepsy revealed interictal discharges are generated by structured laminar circuits. These circuits overlapped with cognitive circuits and could...
