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...

Disturbed sleep is a leading symptom and likely causal factor for the development of psychiatric diseases such as mood disorders. Here we review how sleep is altered in depression, and discuss the role of sleep for therapeutic approaches: www.biologicalpsychiatryjournal.com/article/S000...

If you are at #WorldSleep25 and interested in Dreaming, come by my Poster 75 at 5.30 today! Also happy to chat about any other of my interests, such as infant sleep, gut microbiota, and so on, at the poster or over a tea! #sleeppeeps @dresler.bsky.social

🧠🧪 New paper in #NCONSC 🧠🧪 What if people who seem unconscious (e.g., Disorders of Consciousness, DoC) could still dream or experience mind wandering? We explore this possibility in a new review: academic.oup.com/nc/article/2... With Jasmine Walter and Jennifer Windt! #consciousness #dreaming

From sleep 💤 to dreams 🌙 to daydreams ☁️ - what is the brain up to? I’m excited to host a mini-symposium before my PhD defense! Join us in person or online, details in the flyer! @sarahschoch.bsky.social @dresler.bsky.social @dondersinst.bsky.social

🚨New Paper🚨 I spend a lot of time trying to control what people dream about. Usually, we are looking at dreams of recent memory. In this new paper, for the first time, we caused people to dream about a specific REMOTE memory from their distant past. #cogsci #psychscisky 🧠🟦

Interested in how emotions surface in dreams across the night? In this new paper, Jessica Palmieri, @valentinaelce.bsky.social and I report about the “Nightly dynamics of emotional content in dreams.” doi.org/10.1016/j.ne...

After you fall asleep in the sleep lab, we can decide what you dream about — as Karen Konkoly showed in her PhD work and just published in this new paper: “Investigating dreams by strategically presenting sounds during REM sleep to reactivate waking experiences” authors.elsevier.com/c/1lWFU6TBG5...

What would you like to dream about? Here's a suggestion. Our new paper, co-first-authored by PhD students Daniel Morris and Blaise Elliott, describes a way to provoke lucid dreams about revisiting a profound Virtual-Reality experience - academic.oup.com/nc/article/2...

We are excited to announce the 1st International Conference on Music and Sleep @musicinthebrain.bsky.social, Aarhus, DK, in collaboration with RAMA and @lullabyte.bsky.social. Dates: 6-8 May 2026. #musicscience Please mark your calendars and share the post. musicinthebrain.au.dk/internationa...

"Thank you" for reaching out.

Since Lullabyte began, we’ve been collaborating on a project blending Sleep, Music & Data Science. We're excited to share Somnosphere at the Long Night of Sciences in Berlin on June 28th, an immersive AV experience exploring how can we share the private nature of sleep. tinyurl.com/LNDWLullabyte

We need your help!!! 🧠🧪💤 If you are human, you fall asleep at least once a day! What happens in your mind then? Scientists know actually very little about this private moment. We propose a 20-min survey to get as much data as possible! Here is the link: redcap.link/DriftingMinds

We are hiring! 2 PhD position available on semi-naturalistic behavioral phenotyping and housing projects to increase translation. www.genzellab.com/we-are-hiring

Next, we have DreamRater github.com/SarahSchoch/..., a flexible tool for manual rating of dream content. You can upload your own scales (radio or numerical scales) and rate dreams whole or in parts. Here's a video explainer: tinyurl.com/DreamRater #sleeppeeps @dresler.bsky.social

Sleep disturbance as the strongest predictor of subsequent psychiatric disorders in young people (greater than family history and adverse childhood experiences). Sleep disturbance is modifiable, a key node for intervention. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
