Reactivation-induced motor skill learning
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2021 Significance Learning motor skills commonly requires repeated practice to achieve improvements in performance. Based on memory reactivation frameworks at the synaptic, systems, and behavioral levels, we tested whether brief memory reactivations can ...
