Targeted memory reactivation (TMR) is a methodology employed to manipulate memory
processing during sleep. TMR studies have great potential to advance understanding of …

The experimental study of electroencephalographic slow wave sleep (SWS) stretches over
more than half a century and has corroborated its importance for basic physiological …

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

Slow-wave sleep is the deep non-rapid eye-movement (NREM) sleep stage that is most
relevant for the recuperative function of sleep. Its defining property is the presence of slow …

The link between dreams and creativity has been a topic of intense speculation. Recent
scientific findings suggest that sleep onset (known as N1) may be an ideal brain state for …

Sleep spindle activity has repeatedly been found to contribute to brain plasticity and
consolidation of both declarative and procedural memories. Here we propose a framework …

Sleep is essential for our physical and mental well-being. During sleep, despite the paucity
of overt behavior, our brain remains active and exhibits a wide range of coupled brain …

Sleep promotes memory consolidation: the process by which newly acquired memories are
stabilised, strengthened, and integrated into long-term storage. Pioneering research in …

Abstract Information processing during sleep is active, ongoing and accessible to
engineering. Protocols such as targeted memory reactivation use sensory stimuli during …

Background: Sleep spindles are an indicator of the development and integrity of the central
nervous system in infants. Identifying sleep spindles manually in EEG is time-consuming …
