  1. Sleep is extremely important for consolidation of memory. This has been shown time and again in many sleep research labs. Latest has been this German scientist called Jan Born who even tried to boost memory. he asked people to memorise word pairs that have no relation and during their sleep artificially played with the NREM sleep and subjects could recall more words the next day compared to control. Interestingly since memory can be of many forms, this trick doesnt work with non-declarative memory tasks like motor control learning. But still important research which proves that artificially enhancing sleep enhances memory. From other animals other than rats also it is known that less sleep reduces life span. So sleep well guys... its the secret to long life. It really is.
