This study investigates the long-term effects of early-life seizures on hippocampal-prefrontal network function and behavior in rats, finding impaired connectivity and altered neurotransmission linked to cognitive and psychiatric-like symptoms.

This study investigates how dopamine modulates hippocampal-prefrontal network synchrony in rats, finding that dopamine dose-dependently increases theta synchrony without requiring specific receptor subtype activation.

The paper uses machine learning to decode fear, safety, approach, and avoidance states from brain-wide theta oscillations in rats during stress-related tasks.

The paper identifies a hippocampal-prefrontal network theta activity pattern that predicts learned resistance to stress in rats.

This study shows that long-term potentiation (LTP) prevents ketamine-induced changes in electrophysiological dynamics in the hippocampus-prefrontal cortex pathway in rats.

This study shows that nonconscious visual stimuli enhance auditory pitch learning and alters brain connectivity between visual and auditory cortices.
