Ephaptic coupling can explain variability in neural activity The waxing and waning cortical oscillatory power correlates with function and disease. This cross-trial variability has been thought to be due to neuromodulation, uncertainty encoding, and/or changes ...

In vivo ephaptic coupling allows memory network formation Abstract. It is increasingly clear that memories are distributed across multiple brain areas. Such “engram complexes” are important features of memory form

New putative biomarkers for depression. Describing ephaptic effects.

Recent talk at The Fields Institute For Research In Mathematical Sciences on how electric fields generated by neural populations are not just epiphenomena but may play causal, organizing roles in brain network formation in depression. lnkd.in/eJQWYa7D

Network influence determines the impact of cortical ensembles on stimulus detection By photostimulating specific visual cortical ensembles, Bounds et al. discovered that an ensemble’s impact on local neural activity, not its visual encoding properties, predicts its impact on stimulus...

Hebb's Vision: The Structural Underpinnings of Hebbian Assemblies In 1949, Donald Hebb proposed that groups of neurons that activate stereotypically form the organizational building blocks of perception, cognition, and behavior. Finding the structural underpinning o...

Multiscale Entropy of Resting-State fMRI Signals Reveals Differences in Brain Complexity in Autism Background: Atypical intrinsic brain activity has been widely observed in autism spectrum disorder (ASD), yet the temporal complexity of these neural signals remains underexplored. This study aimed to...
