We spend 1/3 of our life asleep, and the brain is very busy during this time. The neural oscillations of sleep have known restorative functions, and are also critical for memory consolidation and emotional processing. We are interested in enhancing sleep to improve health (for instance by counteracting the impacts of ageing which lead to reductions in deep slow wave sleep). We are also interested in manipulating memory consolidation by triggering the replay of selected memories in different combinations and in different sleep stages. This can lead not only to stronger memory, but to integration of new memories with each other and with existing knowledge, providing a basis for creativity.

我们一生中有1/3的时间是在睡眠中度过的，这段时间大脑非常忙碌。睡眠的神经振荡具有已知的恢复功能，并且对于记忆巩固和情绪处理也至关重要。我们对增强睡眠以改善健康感兴趣（例如，通过抵消导致深度慢波睡眠减少的衰老影响）。我们还对通过触发不同组合和不同睡眠阶段的选定记忆的重放来操纵记忆巩固感兴趣。这不仅可以导致更强的记忆，而且可以将新的记忆相互整合并与现有知识整合，为创造力提供基础。
