Social information processing involves coordinated neural activity across distributed brain circuits, with the ventral hippocampus (vHPC) and medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) playing pivotal roles. However, whether these regions employ distinct coding...
BACKGROUND: Depression is a major public health concern, with a rising prevalence among adolescents and young adults. However, the neural mechanisms underlying depressive symptoms remain poorly understood. This study aimed to identify patterns of alt...
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), particularly Theta Burst Stimulation (TBS), is a non-invasive, non-convulsive neuromodulation technique that induces clinically relevant network modulations with long-term effects. Two TBS protocols- continuou...
Recent transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) studies suggest that theta-frequency stimulation can modulate memory performance, with evidence highlighting individual variability in optimal stimulation frequency. However, it remains uncle...
BACKGROUND: Depression is a prevalent mental disorder, and prolonged exposure to social defeat is a major contributing factor in the onset of depression. Repeated social defeat stress (RSDS) is a commonly used animal model for depression, significant...

OBJECTIVE: Temporale lobe and occipito-temporal cortical areas play an important role in facial emotion perception (FEP). FEP might be represented by event-related brain oscillations. In patients with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), impairment of FEP w...
The temporal order of a sequence of events has been thought to be reflected in the ordered firing of neurons at different phases of theta oscillations. Here we assess this by measuring single neuron activity (1,420 neurons) and local field potentials...

Paroxysmal kinesigenic dyskinesia (PKD) is a rare neurological disorder marked by transient involuntary movements triggered by sudden actions. Current diagnostic approaches, including genetic screening, face challenges in identifying secondary cases ...
Theta oscillations, ranging from 4-8 Hz, play a significant role in spatial learning and memory functions during navigation tasks. Frontal theta oscillations are thought to play an important role in spatial navigation and memory. Electroencephalograp...
Our cognition relies on the ability of the brain to segment hierarchically structured events on multiple scales. Recent evidence suggests that the brain performs this event segmentation based on the structure of state-transition graphs behind sequent...
