Computational Modeling of Information Propagation during the Sleep–Waking Cycle
Biology, 2021 Non-threatening familiar sounds can go unnoticed during sleep despite the fact that they enter our brain by exciting the auditory nerves. Extracellular cortical recordings in the primary auditory cortex of rodents show that an increase in firing rate in ...
