Fast-ripples are emergent properties of neuronal networks

Laurent Sheybani, Yichen Qiu, Prince Kumar Singh…·Matthew C. Walker

Most fast-ripples (250-500 Hz) in rat and human recordings are consistent with chance clustering of action potentials; in awake patients, distinct events make up an estimated 37.5% of detections.
