Brain rhythms are known to play a relevant role in many cognitive functions. In particular, coupling between theta and gamma oscillations was first observed in the hippocampus, where it is assumed to implement a code for organizing multiple items in memory. More recent advances, however, demonstrate that this mechanism is ubiquitously present in the brain and plays a role not only in working...
