Neuronal Oscillations in Cortical Networks

TL;DR: Recent findings indicate that network oscillations bias input selection, temporally link neurons into assemblies, and facilitate synaptic plasticity, mechanisms that cooperatively support temporal representation and long-term consolidation of information.

Microstructure of a spatial map in the entorhinal cortex

TL;DR: The dorsocaudal medial entorhinal cortex (dMEC) contains a directionally oriented, topographically organized neural map of the spatial environment, whose key unit is the ‘grid cell’, which is activated whenever the animal's position coincides with any vertex of a regular grid of equilateral triangles spanning the surface of the environment.

Theta Oscillations in the Hippocampus

TL;DR: Theta oscillations represent the "on-line" state of the hippocampus and are believed to be critical for temporal coding/decoding of active neuronal ensembles and the modification of synaptic weights.

Navigation-related structural change in the hippocampi of taxi drivers

TL;DR: Structural MRIs of the brains of humans with extensive navigation experience, licensed London taxi drivers, were analyzed and compared with those of control subjects who did not drive taxis, finding a capacity for local plastic change in the structure of the healthy adult human brain in response to environmental demands.
