- Can sleep protect memories from catastrophic forgetting? (2019, positive): “Previous work using electrical (Ladenbauer et al., 2017; Marshall et al., 2006a; Marshall et al., 2004) or auditory (Ngo et al., 2013) stimulation showed that increasing neocortical sleep oscillations during NREM sleep resulted in improved consolidation of declarative memories.”
- Sleep for cognitive enhancement (2014, background): “Apart from the ethical questions that are discussed in relation to cognitive enhancement in general, applying cognitionaltering manipulations during sleep—a state of unconsciousness, reduced voluntary control, and heightened vulnerability of the individual—might pose additional ethical concerns.”
- Combining non-invasive transcranial brain stimulation with neuroimaging and electrophysiology: Current approaches and future perspectives (2016, neutral): “In contrast, continuous triggering was actively employed in a slow oscillation up-state-triggered closed-loop auditory stimulation paradigm to actively drive slow oscillations (Ngo et al., 2013, 2015).”
- Echoes of Pink Noise: A Hypothesized Mechanism for Enhancing Sleep-Dependent Memory Consolidation with Auditory Stimulation (2025, unknown): “A number of subsequent studies have confirmed these findings, reporting that pink noise relative to sham stimulation enhances slow-wave activity (Ngo et al. 2013; Papalambros et al. 2017; Salfi et al. 2020; Simor et al. 2018; Zeller et al. 2024), spindle activity (Choi et al. 2018; Choi and Jun…”
- Modulating Human Memory via Entrainment of Brain Oscillations. (2019, background): “Using closed-loop auditory stimulation, Ngo and colleagues [26] demonstrated that auditory stimulation, timed to the endogenous slow-wave activity, enhances both slow-wave activity andmemory”
