An increasingly large body of data exists which demonstrates that oscillations of frequency
12–80 Hz are a consequence of, or are inextricably linked to, the behaviour of inhibitory …

Cheetahs and beetles run, dolphins and salmon swim, and bees and birds fly with grace
and economy surpassing our technology. Evolution has shaped the breathtaking abilities of …

Abstract Gamma frequency oscillations (30–100 Hz) have been suggested to underlie
various cognitive and motor functions. Here, we examine the generation of gamma …

Converging evidence from diverse studies suggests that atypical brain connectivity in autism
affects in distinct ways short-and long-range cortical pathways, disrupting neural …

Networks of GABAergic interneurons are of critical importance for the generation of gamma
frequency oscillations in the brain. To examine the underlying synaptic mechanisms, we …

In vitro models of rhythms of cognitive relevance, such as gamma (30–80 Hz) and theta (5–
12 Hz) rhythms in the hippocampus, demonstrate an absolute requirement for phasic …

Dopaminergic neurotransmission has been highly implicated in the reinforcing properties of
many substances of abuse, including marijuana. Cannabinoids activate ventral tegmental …

The hippocampus and entorhinal cortex exhibit rich oscillatory patterns critical for cognitive
functions. In the hippocampal region CA1, specific gamma-frequency oscillations, timed at …

We describe a simple computational model, based on generic features of cortical local
circuits, that links cholinergic neuromodulation, gamma rhythmicity, and attentional …

Electrical and chemical synapses exist within the same networks of inhibitory cells, and each
kind of synapse is known to be able to foster synchrony among oscillating neurons. Using …
