Sleep and Biological Rhythms
Sleep and Biological Rhythms discusses how sleep, a fundamental biological function, has direct implications on neurological function such as mood, thought, and neuronal health. Sleep plays a critical role in information consolidation and memory, grounded in neural communication from hippocampus to cortex during REM sleep. Such interactions lay the basis for neuroplasticity and organization of the neuronal network. Furthermore, sleep is controlled by circadian rhythms and endocrine cycles, i.e., melatonin and cortisol, that control the sleep-wake rhythm and brain function as a whole. Variations from these usual rhythms—as is the case for the person developing jet lag—can disrupt mental function and negatively impact brain health. Chronic disturbances can raise the risk for neurological disease such as Alzheimer’s disease, as well as psychiatric disorders such as depression and anxiety. Understanding the interaction of sleep, biological rhythms, and brain function holds promise for new therapeutic methods of treating nervous system and sleep disorders. Further research can take the field to better neurological health and mental wellbeing strategies.
