Abstract
Neurons in the lateral thalamus of a patient undergoing stereotactic surgery were found to fire in a characteristic bursting pattern only when the patient was asleep. These novel observations are consistent with animal studies in which the tonic firing pattern of thalamic neurons during wakefulness changes to a bursting pattern during slow-wave sleep.Entities:
