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 …

How do passing moments turn into lasting memories? Sheltered from external tasks and
distractions, sleep constitutes an optimal state for the brain to reprocess and consolidate …

Learning and plasticity rely on fine-tuned regulation of neuronal circuits during offline
periods. An unresolved puzzle is how the slee** brain, in the absence of external …

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

Newly encoded memory traces are spontaneously reactivated during sleep. Since their
discovery in the 1990s, these memory reactivations have been discussed as a potential …

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 …

Sleep has been shown to be critical for memory consolidation, with some research
suggesting that certain memories are prioritized for consolidation. Initial strength of a …

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

The impact of tau pathology on sleep microarchitecture features, including slow oscillations,
spindles, and their coupling, has been understudied, despite the proposed importance of …

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