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 …

The spontaneous replay of patterns of activity related to past experiences and memories is a
striking feature of brain activity, as is the coherent activation of sets of brain areas …

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

Memory consolidation during sleep is thought to depend on the coordinated interplay
between cortical slow waves, thalamocortical sleep spindles and hippocampal ripples, but …

Brain–machine interfaces (BMIs) create closed-loop control systems that interact with the
brain by recording and modulating neural activity and aim to restore lost function, most …

As semiconductor technology enters the more than Moore era, there exists an apparent
contradiction between the rapidly growing demands for data processing and the visible …

How are memories transferred from short-term to long-term storage? Systems-level memory
consolidation is thought to be dependent on the coordinated interplay of cortical slow waves …

Direct electrical stimulation can modulate the activity of brain networks for the treatment of
several neurological and neuropsychiatric disorders and for restoring lost function. However …

Memory systems consolidation is often conceived as the linear, time-dependent,
neurobiological shift of memory from hippocampal-cortical to cortico-cortical dependency …

During periods of disengagement from the environment, transient population bursts, known
as sharp wave ripples (SPW-Rs), occur sporadically. While numerous experiments have …
