It is finally online! In this new article, @AlbouyGenevieve, @DolfenNina, @BradKing_LMN, @ankevr97 and I looked at the influence of sleep on schema-facilitated motor memory integration. Spoiler alert: we didn't find any :') journals.plos.org/plosone/ar…

Sleep does not influence schema-facilitated motor memory consolidation

Study objectives Novel information is rapidly learned when it is compatible with previous knowledge. This “schema” effect, initially described for declarative memories, was recently extended to the...
