Drawing on recent empirical findings, the sessions will examine how sleep contributes to the consolidation of various types of memories, and how daytime learning experiences influence subsequent sleep architecture and quality. Additional topics include the cognitive and sleep-related effects of videogame use, as well as emerging evidence on the relationships between daytime napping and health. Together, the lectures aim to provide an integrative perspective on sleep as a dynamic learning process and a key component of psychological and physiological wellbeing.<\/p>\n<h3>Biosketch<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Francesca Conte, Ph.D., is an Assistant Professor (RTD-B, tenure-track) of Cognitive Psychology at the University of Campania \u201cLuigi Vanvitelli\u201d.<\/strong><br \/>\nHer research focuses on the bidirectional relationship between sleep and memory. She investigates, across different populations\u2014including good and poor sleepers, individuals with insomnia, and older adults\u2014how various types of memories are consolidated during sleep and how daytime learning experiences shape subsequent sleep features.<\/p>\n<p>She has also contributed to research on sleep perception, dream phenomenology, and dream-related emotions, as well as on the links between videogame use, cognition, and sleep. Her current work explores the role of daytime napping in cognition and health, with preliminary findings presented at international conferences.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Conte teaches cognitive psychology, cognitive models, and research methodology across multiple academic programs. She is also a licensed psychotherapist, enriching her integrative perspective on cognition, health, and well-being.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5429-5831\">https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5429-5831<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Friday 29 May at 11:30 \/\/ Relationships between sleep and daytime activities: cognition, napping and videogames<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":108,"featured_media":198394,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":true,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[58],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-198404","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-evenement-en"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bordeaux-neurocampus.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/198404","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bordeaux-neurocampus.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bordeaux-neurocampus.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bordeaux-neurocampus.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/108"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bordeaux-neurocampus.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=198404"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.bordeaux-neurocampus.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/198404\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":198462,"href":"https:\/\/www.bordeaux-neurocampus.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/198404\/revisions\/198462"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bordeaux-neurocampus.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/198394"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bordeaux-neurocampus.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=198404"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bordeaux-neurocampus.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=198404"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bordeaux-neurocampus.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=198404"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
