A team from the University of Oulu, Finland, has identified a mechanism in the human brain that acts as a “water system” during sleep. The finding, described in two studies published in Advanced Science and PNAS, offers a new perspective on how the brain eliminates residues while the body rests. During sleep, the brain launches a kind of biological “water system” that facilitates fluid circulation and metabolic waste disposal. Although it is a m…
