Extracellular local field potentials (LFP) are usually modeled as arising from a set of current sources embedded in a homogeneous extracellular medium. Although this formalism can successfully model several properties of LFPs, it does not…
The first recording of electrical potential from brain activity was reported already in 1875, but still the interpretation of the signal is debated. To take full advantage of the new generation of microelectrodes with hundreds or even…
The power spectrum of local field potentials (LFPs) has been reported to scale as the inverse of the frequency, but the origin of this "1/f noise" is at present unclear. Macroscopic measurements in cortical tissue demonstrated that electric…
Multi-electrode arrays covering several square millimeters of neural tissue provide simultaneous access to population signals such as extracellular potentials and spiking activity of one hundred or more individual neurons. The…
The main contribution to the local field potential (LFP) is thought to stem from synaptic input to neurons and the ensuing subthreshold dendritic processing. The role of active dendritic conductances in shaping the LFP has received little…
We examine the properties of the transfer function F_T = V_m / V_{LFP} between the intracellular membrane potential (V_m) and the local field potential (V_{LFP}) in cerebral cortex. We first show theoretically that, in the subthreshold…
The LFPs is a broadband signal that captures variations of neural population activity over a wide range of time scales. The range of time scales available in LFPs is particularly interesting from the neural coding point of view because it…
Local Field potential (LFP) in the basal ganglia (BG) nuclei in the brain have attracted much research and clinical interest. However, the origin of this signal is still under debate throughout the last decades. The question is whether it…
The local field potential (LFP) is as a measure of the combined activity of neurons within a region of brain tissue. While biophysical modeling schemes for LFP in cortical circuits are well established, there is a paramount lack of…
Neuronal activity in the brain generates synchronous oscillations of the Local Field Potential (LFP). The traditional analyses of the LFPs are based on decomposing the signal into simpler components, such as sinusoidal harmonics. However, a…
Objective. Long-term potentiation (LTP) is a fundamental mechanism underlying learning and memory, yet its investigation at the network level in vitro remains challenging, particularly when optogenetic stimulation is used. The objective of…
We investigate possible shapes of the electric field, which oscillating dipoles in a certain region of biological tissue can produce in a neighboring region, or outside the tissue boundaries. We find that a wide range of shapes, including…
In this viewpoint article, we discuss the electric properties of the medium around neurons, which are important to correctly interpret extracellular potentials or electric field effects in neural tissue. We focus on how these electric…
We perform extensive 2D Particle-In-Cell (PIC) electromagnetic simulations of low pressure Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) discharges with various coil current and driving frequencies. Our simulations show that in low-frequency cases,…
Accurate modeling of electric potential and current distribution in head tissues is crucial for the design and evaluation of neuro-sensing and neuro-stimulation systems operating in the sub megahertz frequency range. Numerical methods are…
We demonstrate that human electrophysiological recordings of the local field potential (LFP) from intracranial electrodes, acquired from a variety of cerebral regions, show a ubiquitous $1/f^2$ scaling within the power spectrum. We develop…
The low-pass filter is a fundamental building block from which digital signal-processing systems (e.g. radio and radar) are built. Signals in the electromagnetic spectrum extend over all timescales/frequencies and are used to transmit and…
As exposure to electromagnetic waves becomes increasingly widespread, it is important to quantify how incident fields couple into biological tissue and where absorbed energy is deposited. This work presents an analytical, physics based…
The electrical properties of extracellular space around neurons are important to understand the genesis of extracellular potentials, as well as for localizing neuronal activity from extracellular recordings. However, the exact nature of…
Oscillations in the local field potential (LFP) of the brain are key signatures of neural information processing. Perturbing these oscillations at specific phases in order to alter neural information processing is an area of active…
