Just out on @thetransmitter: 18 teams analyzed the same #Neuropixels dataset and obtained strongly divergent answers.

Even for #SharpWaveRipple detection, the apparent consensus masked major differences: Some teams detected almost no ripples, others up to 10 per minute. Functional connectivity and spike-spike interaction analyses diverged even more.

Neurons ‘Tag’ New Memories For Storage During Sleep

A study in mice found that the brain tags new memories through a “sharp wave ripple” mechanism that then repeats during sleep.
