Thalamocortical neurons are involved in the generation and maintenance of brain rhythms associated with global functional states. The repetitive burst firing of TC neurons at delta frequencies (1-4 Hz) has been linked to ...

Slow repetitive burst firing by hyperpolarized thalamocortical (TC) neurons correlates with global slow rhythms (<4 Hz), which are the physiological oscillations during non-rapid eye movement sleep or pathological oscillations ...

Membrane potential oscillations of thalamocortical (TC) neurons are believed to be involved in the generation and maintenance of brain rhythms that underlie global physiological and pathological brain states. These membrane ...

The ventrobasal (VB) thalamus relay nucleus processes information from rodents? whiskers, projecting to somatosensory cortex. Cocaine and methylphenidate (MPH) have been described to differentially alter intrinsic properties ...

Slow repetitive burst firing by hyperpolarized thalamocortical (TC) neurons correlates with global slow rhythms (< 4 Hz), which are the frequencies of the physiological oscillations during N-REMsleep, or pathological ones ...

Wakefulness is one of the daily recurring states of arousal, during which neuralnetworks actively acquire external information, continuously sense and logicallyprocess them, and continuously control voluntary movements. ...

We analyze the distribution of intracerebral EEG patterns of FCD in relation to sleep. FCD interictal EEG patterns are present between 45% and 97% of the time analyzed. Despite almost continuous spiking, sleep is an important ...

Recent studies of the neurobiology of the dorsal frontal cortex (FC) of the ferret have illuminated its key role in the attention network, top-down cognitive control of sensory processing, and goal directed behavior. To ...
