Pacing Hippocampal Sharp-Wave Ripples With Weak Electric Stimulation
Sharp-wave ripples (SWRs) are spontaneous neuronal population events that occur in the hippocampus during sleep and quiet restfulness, and are thought to play a critical role in the consolidation of episodic memory. SWRs occur at a rate of 30–200 events per minute. Their overall abundance may, howev...
