Recent research suggests targeted memory reactivation might help with facial recognition and name recall, but quality and quantity of sleep may be important factors in effectiveness. During targeted ...

How are new experiences transformed into memories? Recent findings have shown that activation in brain regions involved in the initial task performance reemerges during postlearning rest, suggesting ...

The representation of individual memories in a recurrent neural network can be efficiently differentiated using chaotic recurrent dynamics.

New research has documented the effect reactivating memory during sleep has on face-name learning. The researchers found that people's name recall improved significantly when memories of newly learned ...

This valuable study links psychological theories of chunking with a physiological implementation based on short-term synaptic plasticity and synaptic augmentation. The theoretical derivation for ...

The neural circuits underlying memory change over prolonged periods after learning, in a process known as systems consolidation. Postlearning spontaneous reactivation of memory-related neural ...

Tsukuba, Japan—Researchers at the Tsukuba University in Japan report that memories acquired while awake are stored in a more permanent form (called memory consolidation) during the REM stage of sleep, ...
