PMID-8670641[0] The hippocampo-neocortical dialogue.
- the entorhinal ctx is bidirectionally conneted to nearly all areas of the neocortical mantle.
- Buzsaki correctly predicts that information gathered during exploration is played back at a faster scale during synchronous population busts during (comnsummatory) behaviors.
- looks like a good review of the hippocampus, but don't have time to read it now.
- excellent explanation of the anatomy (with some omissions, click through to read the caption):
-
- SPW = sharp waves, 40-120ms in duration. caused by synchronous firing in much of the cortex ; occur 0.02 - 3 times/sec in daily activity & during slow wave sleep.
- BUzsaki thinks that this may be related to memory consolidation.
