This study investigates sex-dependent sleep patterns in response to social-defeat stress in mice, finding differences in NREM and REM sleep that correlate with stress resilience.

This paper uses in vivo calcium imaging and electrophysiology to show AVP neurons in the SCN exhibit unstable single-cell rhythms but coherent network activity with a strong circadian rhythm.

This study shows that increased non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep in the prefrontal cortex is necessary and sufficient for promoting resilience to social stress in mice.

This study investigates how biological sex influences active-phase sleep behavior in mice, finding that sex chromosome complement affects sleep recovery but not spontaneous sleep.
