   Stickgold 2005 review was published in Nature, not Nature Reviews Neuroscience (matches own reference list)

   Before

   Body content and bibliography (verified): '- Robert Stickgold, Nature (2005)' and 'Stickgold, R. (2005). Sleep-Dependent Memory Consolidation. Nature, 437(7063), 1272-1278.'

   After

   No change needed. The body content pull-quote and the bibliography both already correctly cite Stickgold's 2005 review as published in Nature, not 'Nature Reviews Neuroscience'. The FAQ field contains no mention of Stickgold or the journal name at all, so there is no residual fabrication anywhere on the page.

   Why: Full verification pass across body content, bibliography, and FAQ field found the journal correction already fully and correctly applied everywhere with no residual fabrication. No fix was necessary; recording the verified current (already-correct) text.
