📜 Thrilled to share the last paper of my PhD in J.Sleep Res., in which we delved into wake and sleep of expert meditators (>10,000 lifetime hours🧘‍♂️), notably assessing EEG power, complexity, SW and spindles!

FYI: free link to a publication led by Yair Dor-Ziderman in Aviva Berkovich-Ohana's lab. We provided MEG evidence supporting the hypothesis that the brains of experienced meditators exhibit reduced defensiveness toward mortality compared to those of controls. academic.oup.com/nc/article-a...
