Abstract

Bar et al. perform local targeted memory reactivation (TMR) by associating words with left or right visual field locations plus contextual odor and presenting this odor to one nostril during post-learning naps. Local TMR selectively promotes memory for words processed in the cued hemisphere and modulates local sleep oscillations and coupling.
