Circadian Rhythm: How Sleep changes from baby to infant

How infants sleep changes profoundly as they grow, influenced by distinct neurophysiological processes. This study revealed how factors like the body’s drive to recover from sleep deprivation and the influence of light on our internal clocks mature in early life. This field of science is so interesting and will

Unlocking the brain's timekeepers: Clock genes

Our brains are primed to keep track of time with the natural rhythms of the day. That's thanks to our circadian clock. This circadian system doesn’t just dictate our sleep-wake cycles; it controls a variety of behaviors and biological functions, from hormone release to body temperature. The

Sleeping too long increases biomarkers for neurological disorders

Sleeping too long increases biomarkers for neurological disorders

Poor sleep affects many physiological aspects, so it's no surprise that scientists have found a potential link between sleep patterns and neurological diseases. Sleep disturbances are a common problem worldwide. When our sleep quality is poor, it significantly impacts our daily life. We’ve all experienced those sleepless
