Biasing Memory Processing During Sleep to Enhance Cognition and Improve Well-Being
Herklotz Conference Center Center for Neurobiology of Learning and Memory, 300 Qureshey Research LabSleep is critical for the stabilization of memories. This process is thought to be supported by the reactivation of memories, thereby strengthening the neural infrastructure supporting them. Theoretical accounts of this consolidation process focus on the process through which memories are independently strengthened, but in natural settings, individual memories never exist in a vacuum....
