Evolutionary insights into sleep infraslow rhythmicity! Excited to see research investigating such rhythms beyond humans and rodent models, including pigeons 🐦 and 7 lizard species 🦎

Sleep supports brain health partly by regulating fluid dynamics to clear waste. @ulvlarsen.bsky.social &co probe the relation between #sleep & fluid movement in the human #brain, finding that #SleepPressure & intensity have distinct effects on brain pulsations @plosbiology.org 🧪 plos.io/3XQWCL6

International recommendations for sleep and circadian research in aging and Alzheimer's disease: A Delphi consensus study alz-journals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

Our paper on CSF, BOLD, pupil, and physiological measures in sleep deprivation and recovery sleep is finally out! 🎉 Congrats Zinong! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Amazing new study combining functional PET(fPET)-FDG and EEG-fMRI simultaneously during wakefulness and sleep, providing both temporal and spatial insights into metabolic and hemodynamic activities at the infraslow scale (~0.02 Hz) during NREM sleep. Wow 🤯 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

1/ "Hemispherotomy leads to persistent sleep-like slow waves in the isolated cortex of awake humans" - out now in @plosbiology.org, led by Michele Colombo, Jacopo Favaro, & Marcello Massimini. 🧠

Please RT! 🙏🙏🙏 1/3 How do you correct for multiple comparisons? Do you take into account *all* comparisons that can render the paper publishable? Most of us don’t. In this NHB piece, Yoav Benjamini, Yoav Zeevi and I argue that it’s time to change our practices >> www.nature.com/articles/s41...

New paper! 🧠💤 www.nature.com/articles/s41... Led by Pauline Dodet - @dreamteamicm.bsky.social We show that #sleep stage mixing predicts poor prognosis in #Parkinson. Stage mixing = intrusions of wake-like activity during sleep, and vice versa. Estimated with hypnodensities extracted from PSG.

17,058 proposals received, 1,650 to be funded. Break-even, where more money is paid out than burned by the process, is ~2 months time investment per application (assuming only few admin/review/non-submitted efforts). Uncomfortably close to predatory territory: doi.org/10.1111/imcb...
