Slipping into sleep : neurodynamics of alertness transitions in humans and fruit flies

2019-01-01

Abstract excerpt

The ability to react to events in the external world determines the fate of every living organism, this general state of readiness is called as 'alertness'. What happens to neurodynamics in the brain when alertness fades away as we fall asleep? How is behaviour affected? These questions will help us understand the organizing principles in the brain and functions of sleep itself. Here I use two distant animal model...
