Assessment of Sleep, K-Complexes, and Sleep Spindles in a T21 Light-Dark Cycle
Circadian rhythm misalignment has a deleterious impact on the brain and the body. In rats, exposure to a 21-hour day length impairs hippocampal dependent memory. Sleep, and particularly K-complexes and sleep spindles in the cortex, have been hypothesized to be involved in memory consolidation. Alter...
