Here are my Research Blogging Editor's Selections for this week:
- Sleep is really important for health and cognition among other things. But what about for memory? An interesting discussion at Psychothalamus about the relationship between sleep and remembering to remember.

One last friendly reminder to submit your favorite posts for Open Lab - only eight days left!
