The How and Why of Sleep: Motor Theory and Catecholamine Hypothesis

2024-01-19

Abstract excerpt

<p>The transition from wakefulness to sleep is associated with profound changes in the brain and body. In addition to altered states of consciousness, there are marked reductions in somatic and autonomic motor activity. To understand how mammalian sleep is generated, whole-brain screening for sleep neurons has revealed a large network spanning the forebrain, midbrain, and hindbrain. We unify various experimental f...
