New paper on sleep published in Current Biology by members of the Vyazovskiy Group and colleagues

Remembering the Need for Sleep

Sleep is the only ubiquitous behaviour whose function remains unknown. The Miesenböck group is looking for—and finding—clues to the mystery of sleep in the properties of sleep-inducing cells in the brain.
