And it's not just individual variation: this phase-locking pattern becomes more consistent across the scalp and across individuals in N2, SWS, and REM sleep.

We found that E:I coupling to respiration shifts as people fall asleep. This means that in sleep, respiration modulates 1/f slope in a different phase than during wakefulness
Wake: 1/f slope peaks during expiration → peak cortical inhibition
Sleep: 1/f slope peaks during inspiration

Using overnight EEG and respiration recordings from 23 participants, we tracked aperiodic brain activity (1/f slope), a marker of excitation-inhibition (E:I) balance, across sleep stages and respiratory phase.

Respiratory coordination of excitability states across the human wake-sleep cycle While the respiratory rhythm is increasingly recognized as a key modulator of oscillatory brain activity across the wake-sleep cycle in humans, very little is known about its influence on aperiodic br...

Curious about how your brain’s excitability aligns with your breath, even while asleep? Check out our new preprint!!

A great collaboration between @tschreiner.bsky.social 's lab and @danlikesbrains.bsky.social 's lab.

Very excited to share the first preprint of my PhD thesis!

Together with @tschreiner.bsky.social, we investigated how respiration coordinates signature neural expressions of successful remembering during memory retrieval. 🫁🧠

A role for respiration in coordinating sleep oscillations and memory consolidation Memory consolidation is thought to rely on the interplay of sleep-related brain oscillations. Drawing on recent findings that highlight the influence of respiration on these rhythms, we outline a fram...

In our recent @cp-trendsneuro.bsky.social forum article www.cell.com/trends/neuro..., we highlight respiration's potential role in coordinating sleep oscillations and memory consolidation. With the fabulous @tschreiner.bsky.social and @estebanbt.bsky.social

Ready for an exciting day at #ScienceIsWonderful! Together with @estebanbt.bsky.social and Benjamin, we’ll show kids how to become sleep scientists and explore how breathing influences brain activity. Can’t wait to share the wonders of science!
