Overview AASM guidelines are the result of decades of efforts aimed at standardizing sleep scoring procedures, with the final goal of sharing a worldwide common methodology. The guidelines cover several aspects from the technical/digital specifications, e.g., recommended EEG derivations, to detailed sleep scoring rules according to age. Automated sleep scoring systems - e.g. Keep reading

Overview The Greifswald Sleep Stage Classifier (GSSC) is a highly accurate, deep learning-based automatic sleep stage classifier that priortises ease of use as well as accessibility for a broad range of potential applications and recording environments. Sleep staging can be performed within a simple GUI, the command-line, or integrated directly into the user's own Python code. Keep reading

Overview: Textbook depictions of aging suggest a linear, almost deterministic, worsening of sleep architecture and sleep physiology in older adulthood. However, such conceptualizations of aging arise from group-averaged cross-sectional polysomnography data. What was the approach to solving the problem? We used a large-sample, longitudinal dataset to investigate individual trajectories in spectral power. Keep reading
