Participants’ brain activity was recorded while they were awake and while they were sleeping. The researchers used a technique called transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), which sends pulses through the skull to stimulate specific areas of the brain. When participants were awake, the TMS pulse spread across the cortex like ripples in a pond. But during sleep, this pulse did not spread widely. The researchers concluded that during sleep, different parts of the brain might not communicate with each other as much as they do when we're awake.
