When the brain goes from wakefulness to sleep, cortical neurons begin to undergo slow
oscillations in their membrane potential that are synchronized by thalamocortical circuits and …

The need to sleep grows with the duration of wakefulness and dissipates with time spent
asleep, a process called sleep homeostasis. What are the consequences of staying awake …

In our daily life, we are exposed to uncontrollable and stressful events that disrupt our sleep.
However, the underlying neural mechanisms deteriorating the quality of non-rapid eye …

Sleep is a fundamental biological process observed widely in the animal kingdom, but the
neural circuits generating sleep remain poorly understood. Understanding the brain …
