Artistic Rendering of Neurological Switching

Caption

This image superimposes hippocampal local field potentials on railway tracks controlled by a switch that is overlaid by a dentate spike colored yellow. Railway tracks provide different pathways to distinct destinations, like different hippocampal information processing modes can enable distinctive memory encoding and recollection information processing functions.
