40 Hz visual stimulation during sleep evokes neuronal gamma activity in NREM and REM stages
40 Hz VS during sleep effectively evoked neuronal gamma activity at stimulation frequency without degrading sleep quality, supporting the feasibility of this approach. These findings lay the groundwork for optimizing gamma-band sensory stimulation as a tool to causally study cognitive functions and as a scalable, non-invasive intervention against dementias.
