このコンテンツについて

We spend a third of our lives sleeping, and this podcast is all about understanding sleep. We know a lot about what the brain does in sleep, but we are just starting to understand why it does some of these things, and even more excitingly, how we can take full advantage of sleep and also manipulate it for our own ends. In each episode, neuroscientist Penny Lewis interviews a different sleep researcher, talking about a various aspect of sleep science. Topics will include sleep physiology and medicine, circadian rhythm, how sleep impacts on our memories and creativity, Sleep Engineering for enhanced health and cognition, and the most recent technologies to promote sleep.©SleepSciencePodcast 2021.

  • S3E5 - Anna Schapiro - Can we model the way REM and NREM replay consolidate memories?
    2025/07/02

    How are memories represented in the brain and how can we model this?

    Professor Anna Schapiro from University of Pennsylvania as we discuss her work on computational modelling of sleep and memory. In this episode, we discuss several kinds of Neural Network models as well as diving into the history of Jay McClleland's Complementary Learning Systems theory and Anna's recent work on combining neural network modeling with EEG.

  • S3E4 - Sleep accross the lifespan - infants to old age
    2025/04/18

    How does our sleep change as we age and what could this mean for memory and cognition?

    In this episode, we discuss with Professor Rebecca Spencer her research exploring how our sleep patterns evolve over the course of our lives.

    We explore the phenomenon of infantile amnesia - why we can't remember our earliest childhood experiences - and unpack the theories behind it. We discuss how hippocampal development changes as we age and how this links to memory consolidation and sleep. We also dive into Rebecca's work on emotional processing in children and how naps and sleeping are able to aid in emotional regulation.

    Rebecca runs the Somneuro Lab at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. Find out more about Rebecca and her research group here.

    Links to studies in the episode:

    • Napping reduces emotional attention bias during early childhood
    • Unhealthy diet is associated with poor sleep in preschool-aged children
    • Television use and its effects on sleep in early childhood

  • S3E3 - Can sleep make us more creative?
    2025/03/14

    In this deep dive episode, we look at how sleep onset can help creativity.

    With our amazing guest speakers, Professor Bob Stickgold, Dr Adam Horowitz, Professor Delphine Oudiette and Dr Celia Lacaux, we take a look at their work on creativity, dreams and N1 sleep.

    Together, we discuss different definitions of creativity, what defines N1 and what it is about N1 that makes it prime time for creative processing.

    • Professor Bob Stickgold
    • Dr Adam Horowitz
    • Professor Delphine Oudiette
    • Dr Celia Lacaux
