Neuroscience: A Distributed Neural Network Controls REM Sleep Jul 22 Written by Heinrich Gompf How does the brain control dreams? New science shows that a small node of cells in the medulla — the most primitive part of the brain — may function to control REM sleep, the brain state that underlies dreaming.
