Sleep Varies From Moment to Moment, with Some Moments 'Sounder' Than Others (1 of 3)

Caption

Location of electrode positions, determined through electro-coagulation at the end of the recordings. Five coronal hemisections with different anterioposterior coordinates are shown for a single mouse. Black arrowheads mark electrode locations. The sections are complemented on their right with a schematic drawing of coronal sections and targeted brain areas are labeled in pink. This material relates to a paper that appeared in the Feb. 8, 2017, issue of Science Advances, published by AAAS. The paper, by S. Lecci at University of Lausanne in Lausanne, Switzerland, and colleagues was titled, 'Coordinated infraslow neural and cardiac oscillations mark fragility and offline periods in mammalian sleep.'
