Theta oscillations provide temporal windows for local circuit computation in the entorhinal-hippocampal loop.

27 Oct 2009 Theta oscillations are believed to play an important role in the coordination of neuronal firing in the entorhinal (EC)-hippocampal system but the underlying mechanisms are not known. We simultaneously recorded from neurons in multiple regions of ... Read more...

A stretch from the periphery helps brain clocks feel the daily heat.

27 Oct 2009 In this issue of Neuron, Sehadova et al. show that synchronization of circadian clocks in the brains of Drosophila by daily temperature changes requires chordotonal organs, mechanosensory structures that function as stretch receptors in insects. ... Read more...

Resolving response, decision, and strategic control: evidence for a functional topography in dorsomedial prefrontal cortex.

19 Oct 2009 The dorsomedial prefrontal cortex (DMPFC) plays a central role in aspects of cognitive control and decision making. Here, we provide evidence for an anterior-to-posterior topography within the DMPFC using tasks that evoke three distinct forms of ... Read more...
