Targeted memory reactivation improved memory performance of easy-to-learn words, but had no effect of difficult-to-learn words, which suggests a critical role of word learning difficulty in sleep associated memory reactivation.
Whole-night fMRI-based sleep classification uncovers distinct substates within N2 and REM sleep stages, along with a transition structure between them.
Oscillation component analysis enables cognitive neuroscientists to summarize millisecond-precision high-dimensional neurophysiological recordings into a smaller set of oscillatory components through biophysically inspired generative modeling of neural oscillations.
Multivariate analysis of respiratory cycle shows that GABAergic disinhibition in the rostral regions of the lateral parafacial area is linked to the most significant and enduring changes in active expiration.
