Cellular and circuit-based mechanisms for daily control of sleep
This seminar will be held online via Zoom
Mammalian sleep and wake follows a complex daily pattern influenced by both a circadian clock controlling vigilance according to time of day, and a sleep homeostat controlling vigilance according to prior wake history. In this lecture, we shall consider mechanisms underlying both central and local control of these processes, and how they in turn intimately control global metabolism.
