- Strange dreams might help your brain learn better. Scientists found when they suppressed REM sleep or when the dreams were less creative, the accuracy of this classifier dropped. When scientists removed non-REM sleep, the brain cortex became more sensitive to sensory blockages. https://www.humanbrainproject.eu/en/follow-hbp/news/2022/05/12/strange-dreams-might-help-your-brain-learn-better-according-research-hbp-scientists/ 4 comments science
- Researchers have found in mice that the dopamine is a trigger for the shift from non-REM to REM sleep stage. They also forced the mice into the REM phase by controlling dopamine-producing nerve cells using lasers and genetic techniques, whether a similar thing happens in people isn’t known https://www.sciencenews.org/article/dopamine-mice-rem-sleep-dream 2 comments science
- Gut microbiome linked to poor sleep via metabolite production. Mice with antibiotic-depleted gut microbiota had altered metabolism of neurotransmission-related amino acids and vitamins (incl. depleted serotonin and VitB6) and disrupted sleep/wake cycles, switching between REM and non-REM sleep more. https://newatlas.com/medical/gut-microbiome-poor-sleep-metabolite-production/ 35 comments science
- People can learn and formulate new memories during sleep, new study shows. The effect was seen only during REM or light non-REM sleep. Exposure to patterns in deep NREM sleep had the opposite effect, suppressing the ability to learn new information. https://www.researchgate.net/blog/post/you-can-learn-as-you-sleep 3 comments science
