Dynamic Synchronization between Hippocampal Spatial Representations and the Stepping Rhythm

Posted by klaurent UCSF

Kavli Affiliate: Loren Frank | Authors: Abhilasha Joshi, Eric L. Denovellis, Abhijith Mankili, Yagiz Meneksedag, Thomas Davidson, Anna K Gillespie, Jennifer Ann Guidera, Demetris Roumis and Loren M. Frank | Summary: The hippocampus is a vertebrate brain structure that expresses spatial representations1 and is critical for navigation2,3. Navigation in turn intricately depends on locomotion; however, […]

Heritable differences in synaptic zinc-transporter levels drive variation in learned birdsong

Posted by klaurent UCSF

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Brainard | Authors: DG. Mets, W. H. Mehaffey, B. M. Colquitt and M. S. Brainard | Summary: Abstract The authors have withdrawn this manuscript. During revision of our manuscript, we carried out several lines of additional experiments and analyses that failed to fully support and reproduce the results previously presented in Figure […]

Phase alignment of low-frequency neural activity to the amplitude envelope of speech reflects evoked responses to acoustic edges, not oscillatory entrainment

Posted by klaurent UCSF

Kavli Affiliate: Edward Chang | Authors: Yulia Oganian, Katsuaki Kojima, Assaf Breska, Chang Cai, Anne Findlay, Edward F Chang and Srikantan Nagarajan | Summary: Abstract The amplitude envelope of speech is crucial for accurate comprehension. Considered a key stage in speech processing, the phase of neural activity in the theta-delta bands (1 – 10 Hz) […]
