On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
The concepts for neuronal coding during short-term or working memory have recently been challenged by observations that do no longer support an exclusive role of sustained firing in maintaining information. We have studied alternative neural signals like LFP oscillations and higher order spike synchronization which reveal interesting options for engaging cortical circuitry in the maintenance of information about stimuli in short-term memory. I will discuss our findings in the light of multiple oscillatory rhythms and measures of global system dynamics which may serve as coordinating principles of memory processes.
