Sleep spindles are burstlike signals in the electroencephalogram (EEG) of the slee**
mammalian brain and electrical surface correlates of neuronal oscillations in thalamus. As …

Investigating sleep in mental disorders has the potential to reveal both disorder-specific and
transdiagnostic psychophysiological mechanisms. This meta-analysis aimed at determining …

Sleep spindles are characteristic electroencephalogram (EEG) signatures of stage 2 non-
rapid eye movement sleep. Implicated in sleep regulation and cognitive functioning …

Creative thought relies on the reorganisation of existing knowledge. Sleep is known to be
important for creative thinking, but there is a debate about which sleep stage is most …

During sleep, cortical and subcortical structures within the brain engage in highly structured
oscillatory dynamics that can be observed in the electroencephalogram (EEG). The ability to …

Despite the ubiquity of sleep across phylogeny, its function remains elusive. In this review,
we consider one compelling candidate: brain plasticity associated with memory processing …

Background Sleep dysfunction is extremely common in patients with schizophrenia. Recent
research indicates that sleep dysfunction may contribute to psychotic experiences such as …

Sleep spindles are transient oscillatory waveforms that occur during non-rapid eye
movement (NREM) sleep across widespread cortical areas. In humans, spindles can be …

Sleep disturbances are commonly observed in schizophrenia, including in chronic, early-
course, and first-episode patients. This has generated considerable interest, both in clinical …

An important function of sleep is the consolidation of memories, and features of sleep, such
as rapid eye movement (REM) or sleep spindles, have been shown to correlate with …
