How does sleep deprivation contribute to #AlzheimersDisease ? Our new paper in @CellReports shows that disrupted norepinephrine signaling after sleep loss slows protein clearance and alters CSF/ECF #proteome, increasing risk for #Alzheimers @UCPH_Research https://t.co/bODckDKNDt

Absolutely thrilled to share that my MRI of a mouse brain shows the cochlea and its fluid channel! This channel may serve as a pathway from brain to cochlea to deliver drugs for hearing restoration. Congrats to all collaborators! https://t.co/KSOeOSa6JZ @NedergaardLab @NMRCoreKU

Intriguing study on avian sleep patterns!🐦😴 Similar to humans, pigeons may also experience REM sleep with dreams. But simultaneously, waste removal from the brain slows down. This paper sheds light on the unique role of glymphatic system in birds. #AvianSleep #GlymphaticSystem

📢 Exciting discovery! 🐦 Our latest study at @NatureComms reveals that pigeons have similar brain activity during sleep as humans, suggesting they
might also dream! 🌙✨ And dreaming might come at the expense of waste clearance during NREM.

Ever wondered how marine mammals sleep while spending months at sea? A new study on northern elephant seals reveals they take brief naps (less than 20 mins) while diving at depths of up to 377m! 😴🌊 The article features amazing data visualizations! #marinemammals #sleepscience"

Have you ever wondered how seals sleep at sea?

The last chapter of my dissertation, now published in Science, illustrates the intricate sleep-spiraling behavior of northern elephant seals.

An expedition into the jungle of New Guinea has resulted in the discovery of two new species of poisonous birds. Genetic changes in these bird species have allowed them to carry a powerful neurotoxin: https://t.co/BFyJUZbReE #newguinea #science #neurotoxin

How does #obesity affect glymphatic brain clearance? In our #scietificpaper in Nature @SciReports, we show that high-fat diet elevates #neuroinflammation and increases the need for glymphatic clearance, likely due to metabolic changes. @UCPH_Research
