Extensive astrocyte synchronization advances neuronal coupling in slow wave activity in vivo

Abstract Slow wave activity (SWA) is a characteristic brain oscillation in sleep and quiet wakefulness. Although the cell types contributing to SWA genesis are not yet identified, the principal role of neurons in the emergence of this essential cognitive mechanism has not been questioned. To address...
