Gamma oscillations correlate with working memory load in humans.
Functional imaging of human cortex implicates a diverse network of brain regions supporting working memory - the capacity to hold and manipulate information for short periods of time. Although we are beginning to map out the brain networks supporting working memory, little is known about its physiological basis. We analyzed intracranial recordings from two epileptic patients as they performed a...
متن کاملHippocampal gamma oscillations increase with working memory load
Functional imaging has implicated a diverse network of brain regions supporting working memory—the capacity to maintain multiple item representations over brief intervals. However, considerable controversy surrounds the role of the hippocampus in working memory. To simultaneously examine both hippocampal and neocortical contributions to working memory, we recorded electroencephalographic activi...
متن کاملHippocampal gamma oscillations increase with memory load.
Although the hippocampus plays a crucial role in encoding and retrieval of contextually mediated episodic memories, considerable controversy surrounds the role of the hippocampus in short-term or working memory. To examine both hippocampal and neocortical contributions to working memory function, we recorded electrocorticographic activity from widespread cortical and subcortical sites as 20 neu...
متن کاملWorking memory related gamma oscillations in schizophrenia patients.
Recent reports show that the capability of neural networks supporting high-frequency synchronization is reduced in the brain of schizophrenia patients. Specifically, deficits in gamma activity have been shown in schizophrenia patients during perception and simple cognitive tasks. However little is known about alterations in gamma responses during complex and higher cognitive processing. The mai...
متن کاملHippocampal and neocortical gamma oscillations predict memory formation in humans.
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) of the human brain has shown that the hippocampus and the left temporal and frontal cortices play a key role in the formation of new verbal memories. We recorded electrical activity from 2349 surgically implanted intracranial electrodes in epilepsy patients while they studied and later recalled lists of common words. Using these recordings, we demons...
