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 …

Over more than a century of research has established the fact that sleep benefits the
retention of memory. In this review we aim to comprehensively cover the field of “sleep and …

While sleeping, many vertebrate groups alternate between at least two sleep stages: rapid
eye movement and slow wave sleep,,–, in part characterized by wake-like and synchronous …

Parsing a cognitive task into a sequence of operations is a central problem in cognitive
neuroscience. We argue that a major advance is now possible owing to the application of …

Sleep is implicated in cognitive functioning in young adults. With increasing age, there are
substantial changes to sleep quantity and quality, including changes to slow-wave sleep …

How sleep helps learning and memory remains unknown. We report in mouse motor cortex
that sleep after motor learning promotes the formation of postsynaptic dendritic spines on a …

The common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus) has garnered interest recently as a powerful
model for the future of neuroscience research. Much of this excitement has centered on the …

Active dendrites provide neurons with powerful processing capabilities. However, little is
known about the role of neuronal dendrites in behaviourally related circuit computations …

The hippocampus plays a key role in the acquisition of new memories for places and events.
Evidence suggests that the consolidation of these memories is enhanced during sleep. At …
