Modules and Multiple Rhythms in the Nervous System

Title

Modules and Multiple Rhythms in the Nervous System

Abstract

The nervous system produces many different rhythms, some simultaneously, in different behavioral situations. This talk focuses on the rhythms of the entorhinal cortex (EC), the gateway of the hippocampus. The EC is believed to have functional modules, each containing at least several different kinds of cells. We model the multiple rhythms that can form within a module, and describe modeling studies about the interaction of these modules. We also discuss potential functional implications of the rhythms.
