In this episode, we journey into the mysterious world of sleep, challenging long-held beliefs about our brain's disconnect during slumber. Delving into a groundbreaking study, we uncover the surprising ways our sleeping minds engage with external stimuli, revealing a spectrum of awareness previously unimagined. Join us as we explore the intricate dance between dreams and reality, and discover the profound cognitive capabilities that persist even in the depths of rest.Paper: Türker, B., Musat, E.
