[HTML][HTML] Sleep homeostasis and the circadian clock: do the circadian pacemaker and the sleep homeostat influence each other's functioning?

T Deboer - Neurobiology of sleep and circadian rhythms, 2018 - Elsevier
Sleep is regulated by a homeostatic and a circadian process. Together these two processes
determine most aspects of sleep and related variables like sleepiness and alertness. The …
