sleep for one night while the other group had a full night’s sleep. They were then asked to observe and recall a set of picture slides for a recognition test. The scientists found that tYour parents told you this when you were young and it surely pays to listen to them. We’re talking about getting enough sleep – that means from six to eight hours every day. This is in order for our body and brain to recharge and function well the following day.

Now, American scientists have confirmed that lack of sleep affects a person’s memory as it changes the function of the hippocampus – a region in the brain vital for memory. Researchers from the Harvard University Medical School said sleep is crucial before a certain experience because getting enough of it can lead to the normal functioning of the memory system.

During the study to appear in the March issue of the journal Nature Neuroscience, one group was deprived of sleep for one night while the other group had a full night’s sleep. They were then asked to observe and recall a set of picture slides for a recognition test. The scientists found that th

sleep for one night while the other group had a full night’s sleep. They were then asked to observe and recall a set of picture slides for a recognition test. The scientists found that the hippocampus of those who didn’t get some sleep was not functioning well compared to the control subjects. Those who were deprived of sleep also showed low recall abilities.

A previous study showed that sleeping for five hours after learning a certain task is vital for the memory. University of Pennsylvania researchers have found that mice allowed to take a nap after training recalled what they had learned than their counterparts that were sleep-deprived. They confirmed that sleep deprivation of up to five hours after learning affected contextual memory such as spatial orientation and recognition of surroundings. This is an additional proof that sleep does help in the normal functioning of the hippocampus.
