When we sleep, we are like birds

In the evening, do you sleep like a child? You probably think so, but actually you have a way to sleep more like a bird.

Rather, a bird has a way to sleep like you. Birds, especially sparrows, are thought by researchers to have a sleep-making structure much like humans and other mammals.

Philip Steven Low, a professor at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies in San Diego, Calif., And his colleagues had a report on this issue in the New York Times Times science section that the EEG The bird shows that they have continuous blinking moments during sleep and a slow wave of movement like sleep transitions is found in mammals.

In fact, scientists want to study the sleep of nightingale birds because there is evidence that sleep plays a role in learning to sing, lack of Neocortex impedes that bird's effort. The purpose of this study is to use similar algorithms to predict structural changes in the sleep of people with neurological disorders.
