S3E5 - Anna Schapiro - Can we model the way REM and NREM replay consolidate memories?
How are memories represented in the brain and how can we model this?Professor Anna Schapiro from University of Pennsylvania as we discuss her work on computational modelling of sleep and memory. In this episode, we discuss several kinds of Neural Network models as well as diving into the history of Jay McClleland's Complementary Learning Systems theory and Anna's recent work on combining neural network modeling with EEG.
