Global modules robustly emerge from local interactions and smooth gradients - Nature
The principle of peak selection is described, by which local interactions and smooth gradients drive self-organization of discrete global modules.

Two cool papers out in Neuron today on memory.
1. Animals can be trained to activate specific remote memories at will:

2. Interactions between cortex and amygdala during reactivation in NREM sleep help enhance perceptual memories:

Closed-loop modulation of remote hippocampal representations with neurofeedback
Animal models of memory retrieval trigger retrieval with cues and measure retrieval
using behavior. Coulter et al. developed a neurofeedback paradigm that rewards hippocampal
activity patterns associa...

1/ Super-excited to share our new work “Episodic and associative memory from spatial scaffolds in the hippocampus”, that just appeared in Nature! www.nature.com/articles/s41... Key insights and ideas 👇#tweeprint
Episodic and associative memory from spatial scaffolds in the hippocampus - Nature
A neocortical–entorhinal–hippocampal network model based on grid cell states recapitulates experimental results and reconciles the spatial, associative and episodic memory roles of the hippocampus.
