Power spectra of iEEG signals. Left, Average power spectrum calculated across 1808 intracranial electrodes in 35 epileptic patients. iEEG data were collected while patients studied and attempted to recall lists of common words. Right, Power spectrum from an electrode in Brodmann area 37 (near the fusiform gyrus) showing a peak in the 4–8 Hz theta frequency range. P. B. Sederberg, A. Schulze-Bonhage, J. R. Madsen, E. B. Bromfield, D. C. McCarthy, A. Brandt, M. S. Tully, M. J. Kahana, unpublished observation).

Yellow Cab: a virtual taxi-driver game. A, Subjects drive a taxi through a virtual town seeking passengers (boy in green) and delivering them to target locations (stores). B, Performance, measured as the difference between the path taken and the optimal path (excess path length), decreases with each delivery. Adapted from Newman et al. (2005).
