This study investigates whether semantic and phonological false memories are distinct or shared mechanisms and how they change with age, finding no age-related differences in false memory patterns.

The paper investigates how subnetworks of the default mode network (DMN) support different aspects of emotional memory recall, finding distinct roles for the medial temporal and dorsomedial subnetworks in perceptual details and emotional tone, respectively.

This study shows that stimulating the medial prefrontal cortex during memory encoding enhances emotional memory consolidation after a 24-hour delay but not immediately after encoding.

The paper examines how stress affects the relationship between slow wave sleep and emotional memory, finding that slow oscillation-spindle coupling negatively correlates with memory in stressed individuals.

The paper investigates how stress and sleep affect memory of a social stressor environment, finding that NREM sleep physiology, not stress reactivity, is linked to memory retention in non-stressed individuals.

The paper examines how emotion affects memory reactivation during retrieval, finding an early ERP effect linked to emotional context.

This study predicts age from cortical morphology metrics across the lifespan using machine learning, achieving a median error of 6-7 years.
