The paper introduces ISAC, a method to detect synchronously active cells, showing it outperforms existing algorithms and reveals new features of assembly dynamics in experimental data.

The paper identifies large sharp-wave ripples (SWRs) that enhance memory reactivation and consolidation in mice by improving hippocampal and prefrontal cortex coordination during sleep.

The paper identifies a novel dopaminergic critic signal in mice during operant tasks that predicts correct/incorrect choices before reward signals, suggesting a role in learning and strategy adjustment.

This study examines rhythmic oscillations in midbrain dopaminergic nuclei of mice during task performance, finding phase-locked activity in specific frequency bands linked to behavioral events.

The paper demonstrates evidence for communication between cell assemblies and 'reader' neurons, showing their functional selectivity, flexibility, and plasticity during learning.

This study shows that locus coeruleus neurons phase-lock to infra-slow rhythms in prefrontal cortex and hippocampus during an attentional task, suggesting a role for noradrenaline in behavioral adaptation.

The paper identifies behavioral phenotypes post-trauma that predict fear relapse vulnerability and links them to differential gene expression.
