Direct recordings of grid-like neuronal activity in human spatial navigation

TL;DR: Recording neuronal activity from neurosurgical patients performing a virtual-navigation task, it is identified cells exhibiting grid-like spiking patterns in the human brain, suggesting that humans and simpler animals rely on homologous spatial-coding schemes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Glucose Requirements Following Burn Injury: Parameters of Optimal Glucose Infusion and Possible Hepatic and Respiratory Abnormalities Following Excessive Glucose Intake

TL;DR: There appears to be a maximal rate of glucose infusion, beyond which physiologically significant increases in protein synthesis and direct oxidation of glucose cannot be expected, as indicated by increased rates of CO2 production during infusion as well as large fat deposits in the liver at autopsy in patients infused with large amounts of glucose.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synchronous and Asynchronous Theta and Gamma Activity during Episodic Memory Formation

TL;DR: It is suggested that network synchrony analyses, as used here, can help to distinguish between two major types of spectral modulations that reflect synchronous engagement of regional neurons with neighboring brain areas, and those that reflect either asynchronous modulations of neural activity or local synchrony accompanied by global disengagement from neighboring regions.
