The development of slow and fast theta oscillations in the human brain

This study examines slow and fast theta oscillations across the brain in a developmental cohort, revealing spatial gradients and age-related changes linked to attention and memory.

Scaling haplospecific antisense oligonucleotides from N-of-1 to broad use in genetic disease populations by diplotyping

The paper identifies haplospecific antisense oligonucleotides for genetic disorder treatment using population genome sequencing and haplotyping.

Brain Dynamics of Mental Manipulation

The paper investigates neuronal dynamics during mental sound manipulation using intracranial recordings, finding changes in local excitability and inter-areal synchrony.

Distributed theta networks support the control of working memory: Evidence from scalp and intracranial EEG

The paper uses scalp and intracranial EEG to identify network-level signatures of executive control during a working memory task, linking local spectral changes to broader network organization.

The development of aperiodic neural activity in the human brain

This study maps age-related changes in aperiodic neural activity across brain regions using iEEG data from children and adults, linking these changes to cognitive development and memory performance.

Declarative Memory Through the Lens of Single-Trial Peaks in High-Frequency Power

This study examines how high-frequency broadband activity and theta oscillations coordinate during memory processing, showing that specific network connectivity patterns predict memory performance.

Circuit dynamics of approach-avoidance conflict in humans

The paper investigates the neural circuitry underlying approach-avoidance conflict in humans using intracranial EEG, identifying theta oscillations and high-frequency activity in prefrontal-limbic regions.

Coupling between slow-waves and sharp-wave ripples organizes distributed neural activity during sleep in humans

This study examines how hippocampal sharp-wave ripples and slow-waves interact to coordinate neural activity during sleep in humans.
