Sleep Induction by Mechanosensory Stimulation in <i>Drosophila</i>

2020-04-15

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> People tend to fall asleep when gently rocked or vibrated. Experimental studies have shown rocking promotes sleep in humans and mice. The prevailing “synchronization” model proposes synchronization of brain activity to mechanosensory stimuli mediates the phenomenon. The alternative “habituation” model proposes habituation, a form of non-associative learning, mediates sleep induction by monotonous...
