Long-term memory formation is a major function of sleep. Based on evidence from
neurophysiological and behavioral studies mainly in humans and rodents, we consider the …

Sleep spindles are burstlike signals in the electroencephalogram (EEG) of the slee**
mammalian brain and electrical surface correlates of neuronal oscillations in thalamus. As …

Replay is the reactivation of one or more neural patterns that are similar to the activation
patterns experienced during past waking experiences. Replay was first observed in …

There is a long-standing division in memory research between hippocampus-dependent
memory and non-hippocampus-dependent memory, as only the latter can be acquired and …

Research suggests that sleep deprivation both before and after encoding has a detrimental
effect on memory for newly learned material. However, there is as yet no quantitative …

Developmental disorders of language include developmental language disorder, dyslexia,
and motor-speech disorders such as articulation disorder and stuttering. These disorders …

Emerging evidence indicates that acute bouts of cardiovascular exercise promote motor
memory formation. In this preregistered meta-analysis (CRD42018106288) we synthesize …

Research findings over the past two decades have supported a link between sleep states
and synaptic plasticity. Numerous mechanistic hypotheses have been put forth to explain …

Sleep benefits motor memory consolidation. This mnemonic process is thought to be
mediated by thalamo-cortical spindle activity during NREM-stage2 sleep episodes as well …
