Huge congratulations to Nina and Charlotte on a successful MSci Poster Day! 🎉 After a year of hard work in the lab, it was wonderful to see them present their findings to the department yesterday.

Check out our new paper! We evaluate what we know (and don't know) about the link between memory consolidation during sleep and next-day learning 👇
