Evaluation of an accessible automatic sleep spindle detector
An important component of sleep medicine is assessing a patient’s polysomnogram, which includes sleep staging. The American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) requires that sleep staging must take into account the number of sleep spindles, a short burst of neural oscillatory activity, demonstrating …

Biophysical model of core & matrix thalamocortical circuitry in rodents & primates
… and attention, during wakeful states, and sleep spindle generation, during sleep states. The TC system is divided into two sub-circuits, the core and matrix, the former involved with sensory processing, while the latter focused on limbic processing and memory consolidation. The core and …

NREM sleep spindles and slow wave sleep in younger and elderly women: an investigation of their influence on declarative memory consolidation
Previous research shows that slow wave sleep (SWS) and sleep spindles play an essential role in declarative memory consolidation. However, this role is not well understood in the ageing women. With advancing age, SWS and sleep spindles undergo significant decreases in duration and density, while …

Employing Intracranial EEG Data to Decipher Sleep Neural Dynamics
Over the course of a typical night, sleep is comprised of multiple different stages that involve changes in brainwave patterns. Intracranial EEG (iEEG) is an invasive brain recording technique used in hospital settings in epileptic patients to determine the focus of their seizure activity. The …
