New research from the University of Michigan explores why the brain nearly always follows a non-REM to REM sleep sequence, using both animal experiments and computational models. The study proposes a theory for how this order may help strengthen and organize memories during sleep. The findings offer a potential framework for improving memory consolidation and may guide future investigations into brain function and sleep disorders.
