In this episode, we explore the role of sleep for memory. We welcome back Svenja Brodt, who will talk about what different sleep phases contribute, the role of dreams, and whether pulling an all-nighter before an exam is a recipe for disaster. We also dig into what scientists are still trying to figure out about how sleep shapes what we remember – and what we forget. Co-host: Simon Faßnacht.
