A Tutorial Review of Functional Connectivity Analysis Methods and Their Interpretational Pitfalls (2016, background): “It has been argued that neuronal oscillations provide a mechanism underlying dynamic coordination in the brain (Singer, 1999; Varela et al., 2001; Fries, 2005, 2015; Siegel et al., 2012).”
Frontal Theta Links Prediction Errors to Behavioral Adaptation in Reinforcement Learning (2009, background): “…coherent oscillations are thought to reflect entrained inter-regional activity, increasing the coordination of spike timing across spatially separate neural networks and presumably reflecting functional communication (Buzsáki, 2006; Buzsaki and Draguhn, 2004; Fries, 2005; Womelsdorf et al., 2007).”
Neurophysiological and Computational Principles of Cortical Rhythms in Cognition (2010, background): “The resulting correlated activity of the two cortical areas may impact more effectively on downstream neurons (287, 310, 549, 838, 1068), as a potential mechanism for integration of sensory information across modalities.”
Rotating waves during human sleep spindles organize global patterns of activity that repeat precisely through the night (2016, background): “…the stereotyped activity patterns reported here may enable STDP to establish large-scale neuronal assemblies at scales where axonal conduction delays are long relative to the oscillation cycle (Fries, 2005; Lubenov and Siapas, 2008), and repeat many times throughout sleep with millisecond accuracy.”
Theta Lingua Franca: A Common Mid-Frontal Substrate for Action Monitoring Processes (2011, background): “…mechanism for entrained interregional activity : Rhythmic excitability may allow temporal windows of coordinated spike timing across spatially separate neural networks , presumably reflecting functional com - munication ( Buzsáki , 2006 ; Buzsáki & Draguhn , 2004 ; Fries , 2005 ; Womelsdorf et al .”
Broadband Criticality of Human Brain Network Synchronization (2009, background): “However, most attention has focused on phase synchronization in high frequency intervals, e.g., the gamma frequency band (30–80 Hz), and in response to experimentally controlled stimulation [ 47 ].”
Canonical microcircuits for predictive coding. (2012, neutral): “, 1989; Singer, 1999), while others have emphasized inter-areal phase-synchronization or coherence (Varela et al., 2001; Fries, 2005; Fujisawa and Buzsáki, 2011).”
EEG microstates as a tool for studying the temporal dynamics of whole‐brain neuronal networks: A review (2017, background): “…groups to effectively transmit signals, it is thus important that theses cycles of excitability are sufficiently time locked if the input of one neuronal group shall not fail to affect another neuronal group because that group happens to be in a transient trough of excitability (Fries, 2005).”
The Theta-Gamma Neural Code (2013, neutral): “This mechanism has been termed the communication through coherence (CTC) hypothesis (Fries, 2005).”
Scaling Brain Size, Keeping Timing: Evolutionary Preservation of Brain Rhythms (2013, neutral): “…temporal frames for grouping, or ''chunking,'' neuronal activity into cell assemblies and sequences of assemblies for the effective exchange of information among cortical networks (Destexhe and Sejnowski, 2003; Wilson and McNaughton, 1994; Steriade et al., 1993a; Fries, 2005; Buzsá ki, 2010).”
The Packet Switching Brain (2011, neutral): “Alternatively, one could see coherent activation as an indication of the path that a message takes across the network, as proposed by Fries ( 2005 ).”
Neural syntax: cell assemblies, synapsembles and readers (2010, neutral): “Exchange of information between different stages of the visual system appears to follow similar rules (Fries, 2005; Womelsdorf et al., 2007), implicating a general rule for the reader-initiated transfer of neural messages.21”
Routing Networks and the Challenges of Modular and Compositional Computation (2019, background): “It has been found that coincidence of spikes from multiple neurons converging on a post-synaptic neuron have a super-additive effect [Aertsen et al., 1989, Usrey and Reid, 1999, Engel et al., 2001, Salinas and Sejnowski, 2001, Fries, 2005].”
