Why do brain networks vary? Do these differences shape behavior? If every 🧠 is unique, how can we detect common features of brain organization?

Hi Bluesky! First post here. Kicking things off with a new preprint.

🧠 Using human iEEG + pharmacology, we asked: is hippocampal theta required for retrieval?

Turns out it’s not. Instead, it may reflect a reinstated encoding mode.

Thread below.

Cholinergic blockade reveals role for human hippocampal theta in encoding but not retrieval
Cholinergic dysfunction is a hallmark of Alzheimer's disease and other memory disorders. Yet, the neurophysiological mechanisms linking cholinergic signaling to memory remain poorly understood. In thi...
