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 …

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

Memory consolidation during sleep is thought to depend on the coordinated interplay
between cortical slow waves, thalamocortical sleep spindles and hippocampal ripples, but …

The coupled interaction between slow-wave oscillations and sleep spindles during non-
rapid-eye-movement (NREM) sleep has been proposed to support memory consolidation …

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

How are brief encounters transformed into lasting memories? Previous research has
established the role of non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep, along with its …

Creative thought relies on the reorganisation of existing knowledge. Sleep is known to be
important for creative thinking, but there is a debate about which sleep stage is most …

Acoustic stimulation methods applied during sleep in young adults can increase slow wave
activity (SWA) and improve sleep-dependent memory retention. It is unknown whether this …

In recent decades, increasing evidence has positioned slow-wave sleep (SWS) as a major
actor in neurophysiological phenomena such as glucose metabolism, hormone release …

A hallmark feature of episodic memory is that of “mental time travel,” whereby an individual
feels they have returned to a prior moment in time. Cognitive and behavioral neuroscience …
