The neural correlates of dreaming

Siclari and colleagues, Nature Neuroscience 20(6), 2017, 872-878. 256-channel EEG with serial awakenings: 32 naive participants (233 awakenings), 7 trained reporters (815), 7 for real-time prediction (84). Dream reports went with a local drop in 1 to 4 Hz activity in a posterior parieto-occipital region in REM and NREM sleep; higher high-frequency activity tracked specific content; real-time monitoring predicted dreaming in NREM sleep with good accuracy.
