Since the second half of the twentieth century, intracranial electroencephalography (iEEG),
including both electrocorticography (ECoG) and stereo-electroencephalography (sEEG) …

Brain activity during sleep is characterized by circuit-specific oscillations, including slow
waves, spindles and theta waves, which are nested in thalamocortical or hippocampal …

The alpha rhythm is the longest-studied brain oscillation and has been theorized to play a
key role in cognition. Still, its physiology is poorly understood. In this study, we used …

Over more than a century of research has established the fact that sleep benefits the
retention of memory. In this review we aim to comprehensively cover the field of “sleep and …

Unconsciousness is a fundamental component of general anesthesia (GA), but
anesthesiologists have no reliable ways to be certain that a patient is unconscious. To …

The most prominent EEG events in sleep are slow waves, reflecting a slow (< 1 Hz)
oscillation between up and down states in cortical neurons. It is unknown whether slow …

Human intracranial EEG (iEEG) recordings are primarily performed in epileptic patients for
presurgical mapping. When patients perform cognitive tasks, iEEG signals reveal high …

The neurophysiological mechanisms by which anesthetic drugs cause loss of
consciousness are poorly understood. Anesthetic actions at the molecular, cellular, and …

We investigated the developmental changes in high-frequency oscillation (HFO) and
Modulation Index (MI)–the coupling measure between HFO and slow-wave phase. We …

Sleep is known to support memory consolidation. Here we review evidence for an active
system consolidation occurring during sleep. At the beginning of this process is sleep's …
