Morning and evening-type differences in slow waves during NREM sleep reveal both trait and state-dependent phenotypes.
Brain recovery after prolonged wakefulness is characterized by increased density, amplitude and slope of slow waves (SW, <4 Hz) during non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep. These SW comprise a negative phase, during which cortical neurons are mostly silent, and a positive phase, in which most neur...
