Thinking about #PlaceCells and the #Hippocampus, do you think results in rats (/rodents) generalise well to humans, and conversely?
Despite being in the US (even worse: Texas!) this #PostdocJob seems really cool!!
“collect and analyze human neurons and LFPs, with a focus on real-time behavioral and neural analyses of naturalistic memory and navigation tasks.”
Postdoctoral Associate- Human Intracranial Recordings

That’s… impressive
Hippocampal Ripples linked to Declarative Memory Judgments in Children
“intracranial recordings in 14 children (age: 6-14) undergoing epilepsy monitoring”
“We found a significant increase in ripple rate specifically during clips recognized as familiar” (apparently normal in humans, but kind of the reverse as in rats where novelty increases ripple rate)
Potentially very interesting #NeuroPaper in #Humans:
Backbone spiking sequence as a basis for preplay, replay, and default states in human cortex
(Thanks to my colleague Hung-Tu for highlighting this one!)
(I’m not sure we can really say that preplay has been “robustly demonstrated” in rodents though…)
#Replay #Preplay #AnteriorTemporalLobe #MicroElectrodeArray #NeuroHuman
Sequential neural spiking activity is a potential substrate for learning and memory across species. Here, the authors showed spiking in the human cortex forms an average backbone sequence, and flexibility around this backbone is associated with cognition.
