Abstract
In the last decades, the enhancement of experimental techniques has allowed more direct and systematic investigations on the neurobiological features and the neural basis of dreaming. Studies within this framework have outlined a coherent, albeit not complete, picture of how brain structures interact in dream formation. The present article will discuss the main insights provided by (1) brain lesion studies, (2) neuroimaging studies, (3) morphoanatomical measurements of subcortical structures, and (4) observations of ‘local’ changes in electroencephalographic (EEG) cortical oscillation.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
