Sleep and quiet wakefulness signify an idling brain hub for creative insights
M. R. Fayed, K. Ghandour, et al.
Sleep and offline “idling” brain activity can replay past experiences and weave novel links across them, distilling rules and sparking creative insights that aid decision-making and navigation of complex situations. This review, conducted by Mostafa R. Fayed, Khaled Ghandour, and Kaoru Inokuchi, summarizes current research and future directions on how sleep and idling brain activity support memory consolidation and creativity.
