Refined Division of Sleep Stages in the Mouse Based on Distributed Deep Electrodes and Underlying Infra‐Slow Oscillation

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The mouse sleep is mostly recorded with only epidural electrodes and divided simply into NREM and REM stages. With the help of distributed intracerebral triplet electrodes, we searched for possible new electrophysiological signatures to characterise more specific sleep substages within the timeframe of seconds to tens of minutes.
