Abstract:Sleep spindles are a hallmark of non-REM sleep and play a fundamental role in memory consolidation. Alterations in these spindles are emerging as sensitive biomarkers for neurodegenerative diseases of ageing. Understanding the clinical presentations associated with spindle alterations may help to elucidate the functional role of these distinct electroencephalographic oscillations and the pathophysiology of sleep and neurodegenerative disorders. Here, we use a data-driven approach to examine the sleep, memory a… Show more
