Optimal Oscillations
The influence of the lateral entorhinal cortex (LEC) on CA1 spiking activity is dependent upon the frequency of LEC inputs.…
Estimating engagement in rhythmic subcircuits
We published a new paper on a modeling approach that robustly captures and predicts neuronal engagement in rhythmic processes at…
Combinatorial Coupling at Cosyne
Graduate student Pamela Rivière used her newly developed statistical modeling methods to characterize the dynamic engagement of CA1 interneurons in…
Making Mazes
In trying to think outside the box, we ended up going super old school. Stay tuned for some cool “new”…
The right regressor
The relationship between neuronal spiking and oscillations in the local field potential can be unpredictable and complex. We have developed…
Informative interneurons
We took a closer look at the hippocampal interneurons in Rangel, Rueckemann, Rivière et al., 2016 to see whether they…
Friendships and fellowships
Our graduate student Pamela Rivière received a highly prestigious NSF Graduate Research Fellowship award! She was warmly congratulated by the…
Rhythmic coordination matters for memory
Our publication in eLife examines the flexible engagement of distinct hippocampal cell types in rhythmic circuits during an associative memory…
Cue up the beta rhythm
We examined neural oscillations in the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus as animals encountered cues that were associated with positive or…
Temporally tagging new memories
Cells in the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus demonstrate activity that is selective for experiences that occurred during a particular…
