During human response conflict–competition between multiple conflicting actions when a
mistake could be made–a specific pattern of brain electrical activity occurs over the medial …

Acetylcholine (ACh) signaling shapes neuronal circuit development and underlies specific
aspects of cognitive functions and behaviors, including attention, learning, memory and …

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a devastating disorder of increasing prevalence in modern
society. Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is considered a transitional stage between normal …

Neuronal firing, synaptic transmission, and its plasticity form the building blocks for
processing and storage of information in the brain. It is unknown whether adult human …

Motor cortex is a key brain center involved in motor control in rodents and other mammals,
but specific intracortical mechanisms at the microcircuit level are largely unknown. Neuronal …

Interneurons are critical for the proper functioning of neural circuits. While often
morphologically complex, their dendrites have been ignored for decades, treating them as …

Individual cortical layers have distinct roles in information processing. All layers receive
cholinergic inputs from the basal forebrain (BF), which is crucial for cognition …

Non‐Technical Summary In multiple brain regions, endogenous cannabinoids suppress
inhibitory synaptic transmission; however, the biochemical/molecular pathways for …

Synchronization of neuronal discharges on the millisecond scale has long been recognized
as a prevalent and functionally important attribute of neural activity. In this article, I review …

Brain electrical activity in the theta frequency band is essential for cognitive control (eg,
during conflict monitoring), but is also evident in the resting state. The link between resting …
