Back from @ESRS_Sleep in Maastricht, where I had the chance to present our work from @LabNir on neuromodulation during sleep and its effects on epileptic activity. Great science, good company, and probably not enough sleep for a sleep conference 🤓

Memory reactivation underlies experience-dependent adaptive regulation of sleep | Science Another win for chemogenetics science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

Memory reactivation underlies experience-dependent adaptive regulation of sleep

Recent memories are consolidated during sleep by spontaneous reactivation. However, whether and how memory reactivation affects sleep dynamics remain unclear. By tracking and modulating memory...

Proud to share that our own @NMatosevich just received the Rotschild Fellowship to study how breathing and breathlessness modulate emotions and arousal, at the Kevin Yackle lab @UCSF. Good luck Noa! Looking forward to hearing about your amazing scientific discoveries
