Abstract

The θ rhythm (4–12 Hz) in the main rhythm in the hippocampus and in contrast to other rhythms it has its own pacemaker (the medial septal area) and physiological regulatory mechanisms. Generation of the θ rhythm is critically required for processing novel information arriving in the hippocampus. This review seeks to describe current views of how synchronization of the neural network of the hippocampus at the θ rhythm is involved in cognitive processes.
