Electroencephalography

Electroencephalography (EEG) is a method to record an electrogram of the spontaneous electrical activity of the brain. Local sleep and Electroencephalography are Neurophysiology.

See Local sleep and Electroencephalography

Memory consolidation

Memory consolidation is a category of processes that stabilize a memory trace after its initial acquisition.

See Local sleep and Memory consolidation

Microsleep

A microsleep is a sudden temporary episode of sleep or drowsiness which may last for a few seconds where an individual fails to respond to some arbitrary sensory input and becomes unconscious. Local sleep and microsleep are sleep.

Neurology

Neurology (from νεῦρον (neûron), "string, nerve" and the suffix -logia, "study of") is the branch of medicine dealing with the diagnosis and treatment of all categories of conditions and disease involving the nervous system, which comprises the brain, the spinal cord and the peripheral nerves.

See Local sleep and Neurology

Neuroscience of sleep

The neuroscience of sleep is the study of the neuroscientific and physiological basis of the nature of sleep and its functions. Local sleep and neuroscience of sleep are Neurophysiology and sleep.

Non-rapid eye movement sleep

Non-rapid eye movement sleep (NREM), also known as quiescent sleep, is, collectively, sleep stages 1–3, previously known as stages 1–4.

See Local sleep and Non-rapid eye movement sleep

Sleep and learning

Multiple hypotheses explain the possible connections between sleep and learning in humans. Local sleep and sleep and learning are sleep.

See Local sleep and Sleep and learning

Sleep and memory

The relationship between sleep and memory has been studied since at least the early 19th century. Local sleep and sleep and memory are sleep.

See Local sleep and Sleep and memory

Sleep deprivation

Sleep deprivation, also known as sleep insufficiency or sleeplessness, is the condition of not having adequate duration and/or quality of sleep to support decent alertness, performance, and health.
