STUDENTS SHOULD SLEEP MORE



New research by the University of Liege in Belgium suggests a good night’s sleep after solid study enhances recall

If anyone try to attempt an all-night study session, better just go to sleep. Research done by the University of Liege in Belgium suggests a good night’s sleep after solid study enhances recall.

Researchers asked volunteers to learn the layout of a virtual town adapted from a computer game. Brain scans of these volunteers during sleep after their study showed higher activity in the hippocampus - the brain learning center, higher than in a control group who had not studied.

The researchers then tested the learners' knowledge after the sleep session and found that there was a direct link between performance and the level of brain activity during sleep. The result provide critical evidence that hippocampal activity during sleep correlates with the improvement in memory performance.

So get enough sleep, they will improve your memory and give good memory recall to you. This could be a step to good result.
