The paper examines how coordination of sleep oscillations during nREM sleep relates to spatial memory performance in rats, finding region-specific coupling patterns between hippocampal and cortical areas.

The paper identifies infraslow modulation of theta synchrony in the hippocampal circuit during REM sleep, revealing temporally structured communication across brain regions.

This study examines hippocampal communication with subcortical circuits across sleep and wake states in rats, revealing state-dependent bidirectional coordination and distinct temporal dynamics.

This paper investigates how hippocampal ripple synchrony across dorsal and ventral regions gates cortical connectivity and memory consolidation during different brain states in rats.

This study investigates how hippocampocortical circuits support probabilistic reversal learning by analyzing neural oscillations and spiking activity in rats.

This study shows that disrupting neural activity dynamics in the medial prefrontal cortex during spatial learning impairs behavioral performance and learning-related activity patterns.

This study shows that prefrontal cortex synchronization with hippocampus and posterior parietal cortex during spatial learning depends on navigation strategies used by mice.

This study shows that optogenetic inhibition of septal somatostatin neurons disrupts goal-directed behavior and alters hippocampal theta oscillations and repetitive self-grooming.

This study shows that somatostatin neurons in the dentate gyrus are essential for pattern separation during episodic memory encoding by modulating excitability and discrimination of similar environments in mice.

This study investigates how social context and dominance hierarchy influence decision-making during spatial navigation in mice, revealing the role of prefrontal cortex and hippocampus activity.

This study shows that somatostatin neurons in the basal forebrain regulate cortical activity and behavior by modulating synaptic output.
