Neocortical long-range inhibition promotes cortical synchrony and sleep
Nature, Published online: 09 September 2026; doi:10.1038/s41586-026-10876-y In mice, a sparse population of sleep-active long-range inhibitory neurons in the neocortex promote widespread cortical synchronization and sleep, revealing a cortical mechanism that contributes to the regulation of sleep.
