Movie-watching evokes ripple-like activity within events and at event boundaries by Marta Silva, Xiongbo Wu, Marc Sabio, Estefanía Conde-Blanco, Pedro Roldán, Antonio Donaire, Mar Carreño, Nikolai Axmacher, Christopher Baldassano, Lluís Fuentemilla

“…Our results revealed a differential dynamical pattern of ripple occurrence during encoding. Enhanced hippocampal ripple recruitment was observed at event boundaries, reflecting hippocampal involvement in event segmentation, whereas higher ripple rates were seen within an event for cortical electrodes with higher ripple occurrence at the temporal cortex, reflecting whether an event was later recalled. …”
