Are spatial memories strengthened in the human hippocampus during slow wave sleep

TL;DR: It is shown that, in humans, hippocampal areas that are activated during route learning in a virtual town are likewise activated during subsequent slow wave sleep, and that the amount of hippocampal activity expressed during slow waveSleep positively correlates with the improvement of performance in route retrieval on the next day.
Journal ArticleDOI

Experience-dependent changes in cerebral activation during human REM sleep

TL;DR: Using positron emission tomography and regional cerebral blood flow measurements, it is shown that waking experience influences regional brain activity during subsequent sleep and supports the hypothesis that memory traces are processed during REM sleep in humans.
Journal ArticleDOI

A time to think: Circadian rhythms in human cognition

TL;DR: The picture that emerges from this assessment is that beyond physiological variables, time-of-day modulations affect performance on a wide range of cognitive tasks measuring attentional capacities, executive functioning, and memory.
Journal ArticleDOI

Baseline brain activity fluctuations predict somatosensory perception in humans

TL;DR: Results indicate a positive relationship between conscious perception of low-intensity somatosensory stimuli and immediately preceding levels of baseline activity in medial thalamus and the lateral frontoparietal network, respectively, which are thought to relate to vigilance and “external monitoring".
Journal ArticleDOI

Both the hippocampus and striatum are involved in consolidation of motor sequence memory.

TL;DR: Results show that both hippocampus and striatum interact during motor sequence consolidation to optimize subsequent behavior and condition the overnight memory processing that is associated with a change in their functional interactions.
