Although long-term memory consolidation is supported by sleep, it is unclear how it differs
from that during wakefulness. Our review, focusing on recent advances in the field, identifies …

Hierarchical synchronization of sleep oscillations establishes communication pathways to
support memory reactivation, transfer, and consolidation. From an information-theoretical …

Sleep constitutes a privileged state for new memories to reactivate and consolidate.
Previous work has demonstrated that consolidation can be bolstered experimentally either …

Sleep is thought to support memory consolidation via reactivation of prior experiences, with
particular electrophysiological sleep signatures (slow oscillations (SOs) and sleep spindles) …

A hallmark of non-rapid eye movement sleep is the coordinated interplay of slow oscillations
(SOs) and sleep spindles. Traditionally, a cortico-thalamo-cortical loop is suggested to …

During early development, memory systems gradually mature over time, in parallel with the
gradual accumulation of knowledge. Yet, it is unknown whether and to what extent …

A prominent and robust finding in cognitive neuroscience is the strengthening of memories
during nonrapid eye movement (NREM) sleep, with slow oscillations (SOs;< 1Hz) playing a …

Current approaches to quantify and diagnose sleep disorders and circadian rhythm
disruption are imprecise, laborious, and often do not relate well to key clinical and health …

Targeted memory reactivation (TMR) has recently emerged as a promising tool to
manipulate and study the sleeping brain. Although the technique is developing rapidly, only …

The transition from multiple sleep bouts each day to a single overnight sleep bout (ie, nap
transition) is a universal process in human development. Naps are important during infancy …
