Schemas are superordinate knowledge structures that reflect abstracted commonalities
across multiple experiences, exerting powerful influences over how events are perceived …

Sharp wave ripples (SPW‐Rs) represent the most synchronous population pattern in the
mammalian brain. Their excitatory output affects a wide area of the cortex and several …

Memory consolidation refers to the transformation over time of experience-dependent
internal representations and their neurobiological underpinnings. The process is assumed …

Sleep is universal, tightly regulated, and its loss impairs cognition. But why does the brain
need to disconnect from the environment for hours every day? The synaptic homeostasis …

Sleep function remains controversial. Individual perspectives frame the issue of sleep
function differently. We briefly illustrate how sleep measurement and the evolution, tissue …

Hippocampal replay during sharp-wave ripple events (SWRs) is thought to drive memory
consolidation in hippocampal and cortical circuits. Changes in neocortical activity can …

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

Slow oscillations and sleep spindles are hallmarks of the EEG during slow-wave sleep
(SWS). Both oscillatory events, especially when co-occurring in the constellation of spindles …

Recent research suggests that sleep disturbance may be a transdiagnostic process, and
there is increasing interest in examining how sleep disturbance may contribute to anxiety …

Sleep exerts many effects on mammalian forebrain networks, including homeostatic effects
on both synaptic strengths and firing rates. We used large-scale recordings to examine the …
