Brain rhythms are known to play a relevant role in many cognitive functions. In particular, coupling between theta and gamma oscillations was first observed the hippocampus, where it is assumed implement code for organizing multiple items memory. More recent advances, however, demonstrate that this mechanism ubiquitously present brain plays not only working memory but also episodic semantic memory, attention, emotion, dreaming, imagination. Furthermore, altered mental states neurological disorders show profound alterations theta–gamma code. review, which summarizes most experimental theoretical evidence, we suggest substantial capacity integrate information characteristic of entrainment fundamental implementing conscious processes.
