Research reveals a hidden genetic link that dictates exactly how your nighttime routine impacts your brain.

A new study uses optogenetics to induce localized sleep in awake mice, reversing memory loss from sleep deprivation.

A recent study suggests that triggering specific, sleep-like brain wave patterns in awake mice can provide the brain with the ...

Researchers at the Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore (NUS Medicine), have demonstrated that caffeine can restore social memory impaired by sleep deprivation by ...

Insomniacs may need to return to their earliest remedies for a good night’s sleep: A bed that gently rocks like a cradle helped a small group of adults sleep better and longer, a study published ...

A new study uses optogenetics and roflumilast to prove sleep deprivation blocks memory retrieval, not storage.

Recent evidence shows a strong correlative link between sleep disturbances and intrusive memories after traumatic events, presumably due to insufficient (nocturnal) memory integration. However, the ...

Scientists discovered that sleep deprivation damages a key brain circuit responsible for social memory, making it harder to recognize familiar individuals. In laboratory studies, caffeine restored ...

Sleep plays a role in memory consolidation, with slow oscillations (SO) and sleep spindles (SP) in non-rapid eye movement sleep being central to this process. While closed-loop auditory stimulation of ...
