Coherent delta-band oscillations between cortical areas correlate with decision making

Abstract: Coherent oscillations in the theta-to-gamma frequency range have been proposed as a mechanism that coordinates neural activity in large-scale cortical networks in sensory, motor, and cognitive tasks. Whether this mechanism also involves coherent oscillations at delta frequencies (1-4 Hz) is not known. Rather, delta oscillations have been associated with slow-wave sleep. Here, we show coherent oscillations in the delta frequency band between parietal and frontal cortices during the decision-making component of … Show more

“…We studied interactions between neuronal spike trains that were simultaneously recorded from five cortical areas in one trained monkey performing a somatosensory discrimination task (6). Recordings for the first monkey were performed in 13 independent sessions (n = 13).…”

“…High levels of spike-field coherence reflect a tight coupling between the spiking of locally recorded units and particular frequency bands of the LFP (Pesaran et al 2002). It has been proposed that the rhythmic synchronization between spikes and LFPs may enhance the impact on downstream targets during sensory processing (Fries 2005; Fries et al 2001; Nacher et al 2013; Uhlhaas and Singer 2010). The finding of reduced baseline-corrected coherence in NRG1 (+/−) mutants thus indicates local deficits in neural synchrony and stimulus processing.…”

“…Needless to say, the delta entrainment across this large cortical circuit should be present during the SCT; however, the putaminal LFPs in monkeys did not show modulations in the delta band during this task. It is know that delta oscillations have their origin in thalamo-cortical interactions [103] and that play a critical role in the long-range interactions between cortical areas in behaving monkeys [104]. Hence, a possible explanation for this apparent discrepancy is that delta oscillations are part of the mechanism of information flow within cortical areas but not across the mCBGT circuit, which in turn could use interval tuning in the beta-and gamma-bands to represent the beat.…”
