Full article link here— I recommend reading the Science link below, first. I don’t understand the finer details of the experiment, but exciting are the questions of memory formation and how that information is stored. Also, maybe the idea of teleportation can be realized by approaching it as more illusory than real.

Although not new news, the idea of various hard coded oscillators in the brain that govern and synchronize different processes is cool and I can’t help but make comparisons to computers and the weird relationship that life has with time.
