Régulation de la locomotion par les oscillations thêta de l'hippocampe

Synopsis of Régulation de la locomotion par les oscillations thêta de l'hippocampe

«Régulation de la locomotion par les oscillations thêta de l'hippocampe» is a neuroscience study by Franziska Bender in paperback (Editions Notre Savoir).

Study on how hippocampal theta oscillations regulate locomotion speed in animals. With optogenetics, excitation of medial septum pacemaker cells reduces theta amplitude variability and produces slower, more regular running. The effect depends on subcortical output to the lateral septum, with implications for spatial navigation and electrophysiology.

Published in 2025, in French, with 148 pages. The author completed her doctoral thesis at the University of St Andrews and the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh.

Aimed at students and professionals in neuroscience, especially those studying spatial navigation and brain electrophysiology.
