Abstract in brief

Sleep supports long-term memory formation by actively consolidating newly encoded memories during slowwave sleep (SWS), transferring them from the hippocampus to the neocortex.
This process involves reactivating memories during sleep, is selective rather than affecting all memories equally, and results in qualitative changes that improve how we understand and use those memories.
Evidence shows that reactivation during SWS is crucial for consolidation, and sleep especially benefits memories relevant for future use, making the entire process both targeted and transformative.
