A PARADOX that exists in auditory and electrosensory neural systems 1,2 is that they encode
behaviourally relevant signals in the range of a few microseconds with neurons that are at …

A correlation-based (“Hebbian”) learning rule at a spike level with millisecond resolution is
formulated, mathematically analyzed, and compared with learning in a firing-rate description. …

Neuronal oscillations allow for temporal segmentation of neuronal spikes. Interdependent
oscillators can integrate multiple layers of information. We examined phase–phase coupling of …

Tinnitus, the perception of a sound in the absence of acoustic stimulation, is often associated
with hearing loss. Animal studies indicate that hearing loss through cochlear damage can …

Chronic tinnitus is often accompanied by a hearing impairment, but it is still unknown whether
hearing loss can actually cause tinnitus. The association between the pitch of the tinnitus …

We study analytically a model of long-term synaptic plasticity where synaptic changes are
triggered by presynaptic spikes, postsynaptic spikes, and the time differences between …

Acoustic stimulation with hearing aids or noise devices is frequently used in tinnitus therapy.
However, such behind-the-ear devices are limited in their high-frequency output with an …

When a rat crosses the place field of a hippocampal pyramidal cell, this cell typically fires a
series of spikes. Spike phases, measured with respect to theta oscillations of the local field …

During the crossing of the place field of a pyramidal cell in the rat hippocampus, the firing
phase of the cell decreases with respect to the local theta rhythm. This phase precession is …

High-frequency hippocampal network oscillations, or "ripples," are thought to be involved in
episodic memory. According to current theories, memory traces are represented by …
