Professor: I want to share a recent finding from the field of cognitive psychology that you might find very useful. A study published last month confirmed a strong link between sleep and memory consolidation. Researchers found that the brain processes and strengthens new memories during certain stages of sleep. Essentially, sleeping after you study helps you retain information more effectively. The practical implication for you is clear: avoid late-night cramming sessions and instead, try to get a good night's sleep after studying for an exam.
