Reuniens transiently synchronizes memory networks at beta frequencies

This study shows that the reuniens nucleus drives beta oscillations in the prefrontal-hippocampal network during memory tasks, facilitating memory-based decision making.

Dual projecting cells linking thalamic and cortical communication routes between the medial prefrontal cortex and hippocampus

The paper identifies dual projecting cells in specific brain regions that connect the medial prefrontal cortex and hippocampus via thalamic and cortical pathways in rats.

'Awake delta' and theta-rhythmic hippocampal network modes during intermittent locomotor behaviors in the rat

The paper identifies delta and theta rhythmic modes in the rat hippocampus during locomotor behaviors, showing they are functionally distinct and temporally interspersed during navigation.

RatHat: A self-targeting printable brain implant system

The paper introduces RatHat, a 3D-printable stereotaxic system for rat brain implants that reduces costs, training, and surgical time while improving repeatability and durability.

Prefrontal pathways provide top down control of memory for sequences of events

This study shows that prefrontal pathways regulate sequence memory retrieval in rats by controlling working memory and temporal context strategies.
