Brain and Sleep Research Laboratory

The Brain and Sleep Research Laboratory is a joint effort of Luisa de Vivo and Michele Bellesi to investigate the neurobiology of sleep and wakefulness

Happy to share our recent work describing a possible role of Locus Coeruleus in the pathophysiology of NREM parasomnias

Latest piece of the lab. We studied the effects of vestibular stimulation during sleep on synaptic plasticity and motor learning.

Rocking-induced sleep enhancement promotes motor learning through transcriptional and synaptic remodelling

🧠💤 New lab paper in @PNASNews
Sleep loss doesn’t just make neurons tired - it slows the communication between them.
We show that chronic sleep loss impairs myelin integrity, slows neural signal conduction, and affects cognition & motor behavior.

Sleep is essential for myelin maintenance. Disrupted oligodendrocyte function may underlie cognitive and behavioral impairments after sleep loss.

Today in @NatureMedicine we report that AI can predict 130 diseases from 1 night of sleep🛌

We trained a foundation model (#SleepFM) on 585K hours of sleep recordings from 65K people—brain, heart, muscle & breathing signals combined.

AI learns the language of sleep🧵

🚨 New paper alert! 🚨(1/6)

Excited to share our work, out now in Science Advances

We show that a rapid norepinephrine surge along a brainstem pathway (LC→PRN) is a key driver of sound-evoked awakenings
