Oscillations in the high gamma and ripple frequency ranges are known to coordinate local hippocampal and neocortical neuronal assemblies during memory encoding and recall. Here, we explored spatiotemporal dynamics and the role of global coordination of these fast oscillatory discharges across the sensory and associational cortical areas in distinct phases of memory processing. Individual bursts of high frequency oscillations were detected in intracranial recordings from epilepsy patients remembering word lists for immediate free recall. We found constant coincident bursting across visual and higher order processing areas, peaking before recall and elevated during encoding of words. This global co-bursting was modulated by memory processing, engaged approximately half of the recorded electrode sites, and clustered into a sequence of multiple consecutive bursting discharges. Our results suggest a general role of global coincident high frequency oscillations in organizing large-scale information processing across the brain necessary especially, but not exclusively, for memory functions.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
