Cellular networks underlying human spatial navigation
Arne D. Ekstrom,Michael J. Kahana,Jeremy B. Caplan,Tony A. Fields,Eve A. Isham,Ehren L. Newman,Itzhak Fried,Itzhak Fried +7 more
TL;DR: Evidence is presented for a neural code of human spatial navigation based on cells that respond at specific spatial locations and cells thatrespond to views of landmarks that are present primarily in the hippocampus and the parahippocampal region.
Journal ArticleDOI
A distributed representation of temporal context
Marc W. Howard,Michael J. Kahana +1 more
TL;DR: This work demonstrates that TCM can simultaneously explain recency and contiguity effects across time scales, and provides a principled explanation of the widespread advantage for forward recalls in free and serial recall.
Journal ArticleDOI
Broadband Shifts in Local Field Potential Power Spectra Are Correlated with Single-Neuron Spiking in Humans
TL;DR: It is found that firing rates were positively correlated with broadband (2–150 Hz) shifts in the LFP power spectrum and narrowband oscillations correlated both positively and negatively with firing rates at different recording sites.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gating of Human Theta Oscillations by a Working Memory Task
Sridhar Raghavachari,Michael J. Kahana,Michael J. Kahana,Daniel S. Rizzuto,Jeremy B. Caplan,Matthew P. Kirschen,Blaise F. D. Bourgeois,Joseph R. Madsen,Joseph R. Madsen,John E. Lisman +9 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that theta oscillations could have an important role in organizing multi-item working memory and reveal a new phenomenon, the cognitive "gating" of a brain oscillation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Theta and Gamma Oscillations during Encoding Predict Subsequent Recall
TL;DR: Findings implicate theta and gamma oscillatory activity, across a widespread network of cortical regions, in the formation of new episodic memories in epileptic patients undergoing invasive monitoring.
