Environmental enrichment increases memory reactivation in cortical neurons during spatial tasks.
Enriched mice showed better anticipatory responses and stable memory representations compared to controls.
Cortical neuron activity became more precise in enriched animals over time, indicating enhanced memory processing.
These findings suggest that engaging environments can bolster cognitive reserve and improve learning outcomes.
