NIGHT VISIONS: The Science of Sleep and Dreams with Dr Glenn Wilson
- Brompton Cemetery
Description
We spend about a third of our lives in sleep and perhaps a quarter of that dreaming, yet very little is known about the reasons for either. Although the body is passive, the brain is still highly active during sleep so something important seems to be going on. Is dreaming a bi-product of the process of memory consolidation or just the activity of a default neural network? Does dream content spotlight our waking concerns and can it be interpreted so as to reveal our unconscious fears and desires? Can it provide us with inspiration and guidelines for life’s decisions?
In this talk, Dr Glenn Wilson will address these questions and will investigate some of the more weird phenomena of sleep, such as sexsomnia and sleep paralysis.
