and reduced time spent in slow wave sleep. Aberrant brain oscillation activity during sleep, such as reduced slow wave oscillation amplitudes or fewer sleep spindles, is associated with poor sleep and ...

Central to the findings are reorganizations of neuronal activity patterns during sleep to reflect those seen during memory recollection upon awakening. The findings were published in Neuron.
