Learning and language in the unconscious human hippocampus
Consciousness is a fundamental component of cognition, but the degree to which higher-order perception relies on it remains disputed. Here we demonstrate the persistence of learning, semantic processi...

New results!
Working memory is read out via a theta (3-6 Hz) traveling wave sweeping across cortex.
Working memory readout varies with frontal theta rhythms

Working memory readout varies with frontal theta rhythms
Increasing evidence suggests that attention varies rhythmically, phase-locked to ongoing cortical oscillations. Here, we report that the phase of theta oscillations (3 to 6 Hz) in the frontal eye fiel...
