Conscious and unconscious episodic memory

Our findings suggest that the human hippocampal formation specializes in the rapid establishment of new conceptual associations between items in memory. Associations are the building blocks of episodic memory. The hippocampal formation mediates the rapid encoding of new associations even when encoding (and later retrieval) are carried out without conscious awareness of encoding (and retrieval). Patients with hippocampal damage are impaired at encoding relational information both consciously and unconsciously. Hence, hippocampus is necessary for rapid relational encoding at all awareness levels. Given that flexible associations are the building blocks of episodic memory, we conjecture that humans possess episodic memories at all levels of consciousness.

Superiority of unconscious versus conscious episodic memory formation

When a large amount of new and complex information (cartoon clips) needs to be encoded, weighed and integrated in episodic long-term memory, unconscious processing appears to outperform conscious processing because of the limited workspace of conscious information processing. We found that large amounts of information can be acquired and stored long-term in episodic memory with no information loss due to interference. Moreover, the consolidation of unconsciously acquired episodic memories required sleep. Then, the consolidation of unconsciously acquired episodic memories proceeds with no apparent forgetting. In fact, retrieval becomes more successful over time resulting in a reverse forgetting curve. We now study the consolidation of unconsciously (i.e., subliminally) acquired cartoon clips over a whole week, testing retrieval performance repeatedly over days. The change of underlying memory traces is explored using 7T functional magnetic resonance imaging.

Remembering despite amnesia

According to doctrines, newly experienced episodes are no longer stored in the case of severe memory impairment (amnesia). We investigate whether experienced events are nevertheless stored despite amnesia but can only be remembered unconsciously. We are mapping individual memory traces in the brain of healthy and amnesic people with the help of ultra-high-field magnetic resonance imaging. The team performs functional, structural, and spectroscopic magnetic resonance imaging to track the dynamic changes of newly formed memory traces over 24 hours. Non-invasive brain stimulation enhances memory formation. If amnesic patients continue to store experienced events and if storage can be enhanced by brain stimulation to the point where conscious retrieval becomes possible, then this discovery will revise memory theories and will initiate new diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for those suffering from amnesia. These findings will positively change the perception and treatment of amnesic patients in our society.

Role of sleep stages and sleep parameters in memory consolidation and in memory formation

We study the consolidation of consciously and unconsciously wake-acquired memories during daytime naps and nighttime sleep using high-density electroencephalography. We also study memory formation DURING deep sleep using vocabulary learning paradigms. Having shown that new vocabulary can be acquired and stored for long-term during deep sleep, we now explore how this sleep-learning influences the acquisition rate of wake-learning the same or similar vocabulary.
