Precise Slow Oscillation-Spindle Coupling Promotes Memory Consolidation in Younger and Older Adults
2018-02-20
Abstract excerpt
Memory consolidation during sleep relies on the precisely timed interaction of rhythmic neural events. Here, we investigate differences in slow oscillations (SO) and sleep spindles (SP) and their coupling across the adult human lifespan and ask whether observed alterations relate to the ability to retain associative memories across sleep. We demonstrate that the fine-tuned SO–SP coupling that is present in younger...
