Sleep stages antagonistically modulate reactivation drift

Bollmann et al. track reactivated CA1 assemblies representing spatial memories during 16–20 h of sleep/rest. Assemblies initially reflect recently learned spatial memories but are gradually transformed into those seen during the memory recall session following rest. Whereas slow-wave sleep accelerates the assembly drift, REM epochs counteract it.
