Etter G, van der Veldt S, Mosser C, Hasselmo M, Williams S
Cell Rep . 2024 Nov; 43(11):114980. PMID: 39535920
The hippocampus is a higher-order brain structure responsible for encoding new episodic memories and predicting future outcomes. In the absence of external stimuli, neurons in the hippocampus track elapsed time,...

Etter G, Carmichael J, Williams S
Front Cell Neurosci . 2023 Sep; 17:1233849. PMID: 37720546
Oscillations in neural activity are widespread throughout the brain and can be observed at the population level through the local field potential. These rhythmic patterns are associated with cycles of...

Levesque M, Wang S, Etter G, Williams S, Avoli M
J Neurophysiol . 2023 Apr; 129(5):1218-1223. PMID: 37073973
Emerging evidence suggests that the medial septum can control seizures occurring in focal epileptic disorders, thus representing a therapeutic target. Therefore, we investigated whether continuous optogenetic activation of inhibitory parvalbumin...

Etter G, van der Veldt S, Choi J, Williams S
Nat Commun . 2023 Jan; 14(1):410. PMID: 36697399
The precise temporal coordination of activity in the brain is thought to be fundamental for memory function. Inhibitory neurons in the medial septum provide a prominent source of innervation to...

Levesque M, Wang S, Etter G, Williams S, Avoli M
Neurobiol Dis . 2022 Jun; 171:105794. PMID: 35718264
Mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE) is the most common type of focal refractory epilepsy and is characterized by recurring seizures that are often refractory to medication. Since parvalbumin-positive (PV) interneurons...

van der Veldt S, Etter G, Mosser C, Manseau F, Williams S
PLoS Biol . 2021 Aug; 19(8):e3001383. PMID: 34460812
The hippocampal spatial code's relevance for downstream neuronal populations-particularly its major subcortical output the lateral septum (LS)-is still poorly understood. Here, using calcium imaging combined with unbiased analytical methods, we...

Badrinarayanan S, Manseau F, Williams S, Brandon M
Front Neural Circuits . 2021 Aug; 15:653116. PMID: 34421547
Circuit interactions within the medial entorhinal cortex (MEC) translate movement into a coherent code for spatial location. Entorhinal principal cells are subject to strong lateral inhibition, suggesting that a disinhibitory...

Mosser C, Haqqee Z, Nieto-Posadas A, Murai K, Stifani S, Williams S, et al.
Genes Brain Behav . 2020 Jul; 20(1):e12686. PMID: 32691490
Understanding the rules that govern neuronal dynamics throughout the brain to subserve behavior and cognition remains one of the biggest challenges in neuroscience research. Recent technical advances enable the recording...

Etter G, Manseau F, Williams S
Front Neural Circuits . 2020 Jun; 14:19. PMID: 32499681
Understanding the role of neuronal activity in cognition and behavior is a key question in neuroscience. Previously, studies have typically inferred behavior from electrophysiological data using probabilistic approaches including Bayesian...
