Less practice makes just as perfect.

Scientific Abstract

How we can optimise behavioural gains from training is a key neuroscientific question. The role of consolidation has often been overlooked but offers a substantial potential target for therapeutic approaches. Here, we discuss the mechanisms underpinning off-line skill acquisition, as reported in a recent study by Herszage and colleagues.
