Human dissection and comparative anatomy: Archaeological evidence for nineteenth‐century anatomical practice at University College London

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Excavation at University College London revealed more than 8700 human skeletal fragments representing at least 38 individuals, alongside over 800 animal remains. Features consistent with dissection, specimen preparation and curation provide evidence for the use of human and animal material in nineteenth‐century anatomical education, offering rare ...

Sleep Preserves, Wake Differentiates: Strength‐Dependent Forgetting of Declarative Memories Across the Retention Interval

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sleep benefits memory, but the extend to which this benefit depends on initial memory strength remains heavily debated. We examined whether sleep preferentially stabilises weakly versus strongly encoded declarative memories, and whether classical sleep oscillations contribute to this effect.

Are Age‐Related Differences in Sleep Associated With the Different Trajectories of Fluid and Crystallized Intelligence Across the Lifespan?

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A common misconception is that, with age, cognition deteriorates across all domains. Instead, certain aspects are negatively impacted, while others are relatively spared, or, continue to improve. Specifically, fluid intelligence (i.e., problem‐solving skills) peaks in early adulthood and declines, whereas crystallized intelligence (i.e ...

Sodium Oxybate Alters Sleep Architecture and Reduces Emotional Selectivity in Memory‐Related Responses

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sleep supports memory consolidation. Non‐rapid eye movement (NREM) and rapid eye movement (REM) sleep have been proposed to support, respectively, declarative memory consolidation and the integration of the memory affective dimension. Here, we used sodium oxybate (SXB) to modify the NREM/REM proportion during one sleep night and assessed ...

Experimental Sleep Restriction Blunts Positive Emotions and Aesthetic Experiences When Viewing Artwork

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sleep loss influences basic emotional and cognitive processes, but its impact on higher‐order naturalistic cognition, such as aesthetic judgements, is less understood. The current study primarily investigated whether experimental sleep restriction altered aesthetic evaluations of abstract artwork, and secondarily tested whether these ...
