Title
Slow EEG rhythms and inter-hemispheric synchronization across sleep and wakefulness in the human hippocampus.
Abstract
Converging data that attribute a central role to sleep in memory consolidation have increased the interest to understand the characteristics of the hippocampal sleep and their relations with the processing of new information. Neural synchronization between different brain regions is thought to be implicated in long-term memory consolidation by facilitating neural communication and by promoting neural plasticity. However, the majority of studies have focused their interest on intra-hippocampal, rhinal–hippocampal or cortico-hippocampal synchronization, while inter-hemispheric synchronization has been so far neglected.
