Is there a relation between EEG-slow waves and memory dysfunction in epilepsy? A critical appraisal. by Höller eYvonne, Eugen eTrinka

“…This is in strong contrast to physiological slow wave activity during deep sleep, which is thought to group memory-consolidating fast oscillatory activity.In patients with epilepsy, slow waves may not only correlate with the peri-ictal clouding of consciousness, but could be the epiphenomenon of mechanisms which interfere with normal brain function in a wider range. …”

Corticosterone Treatment and Incubation Time After Contextual Fear Conditioning Synergistically Induce Fear Memory Generalization in Neuropeptide S Receptor-Deficient Mice by Malgorzata H. Kolodziejczyk, Markus Fendt, Markus Fendt

“…Here, we hypothesize that NPSR-deficient mice with high corticosterone (CORT) levels during the fear memories consolidation are more prone to develop generalized fear. …”

Places of memory and memorial culture of the Russian province in the 19th – early 20th centuries: historiography and sources by Olga A. Sukhova

“…The need for further development of such aspects of the problem as: coherence of the place of memory and identity has been identified; the interaction of competing meanings in representations of the past (gaps in real representa-tions of the past, “absent knowledge”; imagination and “present memory”); definition of the concept itself; factors and specifics of memorial consolidation of society; means and mech-anisms of institutionalization of memorial culture and historical policy. …”

Stingless bee honey improves spatial memory in mice, probably associated with brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and Inositol 1,4,5- triphosphate receptor type 1 (Itpr1) gene... by Zulkifli, Fairuz Nabila, Fernandez, Ivanna, Abdul Razak, Mariatulqabtiah, Sangu, Muthuraju, Johari, Nor Azfa, Mohamed, Mahaneem, Roslan, Nurhidayah

“…Results indicate spatial working memory and spatial reference memory of mice were significantly improved in the honey-treated group compared with the control group. Improved memory consolidations were also observed in prolonged supplementation. …”

Does anodal cerebellar tDCS boost transfer of after-effects from throwing to pointing during prism adaptation? by Lisa Fleury, Lisa Fleury, Francesco Panico, Alexandre Foncelle, Alexandre Foncelle, Patrice Revol, Patrice Revol, Ludovic Delporte, Ludovic Delporte, Sophie Jacquin-Courtois, Sophie Jacquin-Courtois, Christian Collet, Yves Rossetti, Yves Rossetti

“…From a network approach, we suggest that cerebellum is part of a more complex circuitry responsible for the development of transfer which is likely embracing the primary motor cortex due to its role in motor memories consolidation. This paves the way for further work entailing multiple-sites stimulation to explore the role of M1-cerebellum dynamic interplay in transfer.…”
