"Coordinated memory replay in the visual cortex and hippocampus during sleep"
It's the title of an article forthcoming in Nature Neuroscience. As yesterday's NYT article says, this is big news. The authors appear to have recorded the non-REM-sleep-induced dialogue between cortex and hippocampus by which long term memories are consolidated.
Hi,
Which are the practical meanings of this investigation in relation to our memory? does our memory work better during rem-sleep?
