TL;DR: It is proposed that interneuron network oscillations, in conjunction with intrinsic membrane resonances and long-loop (such as thalamocortical) interactions, contribute to 40-Hz rhythms in vivo.

TL;DR: A simplified model is used to show that the different rhythms in the CA1 region of the hippocampus employ different dynamical mechanisms to synchronize, based on different ionic currents, which are consistent with data suggesting that gamma rhythms are used for relatively local computations whereas beta rhythms are use for higher level interactions involving more distant structures.

TL;DR: This article critically discusses the challenges and opportunities for improving cognition in individuals suffering from psychiatric disorders, highlighting the needs to characterize the cellular and cerebral circuits underpinning cognitive function and identify more effective treatments.

TL;DR: This review will provide the reader with a brief outline of the basic properties of inhibition-based oscillations in the CNS by combining research from laboratory models, large-scale neuronal network simulations, and mathematical analysis.

TL;DR: It is argued that loss of function of PrPc may contribute to the early synaptic loss3 and neuronal degeneration seen in Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease and scrapie and bovine spongiform encephalopathy in animals.
