🧠💤 Why do we sleep? A groundbreaking Neuron article explores this timeless question through a bold new lens:

🛌 The Motor Theory & Catecholamine Hypothesis of Sleep.

Instead of a single "sleep center," 🧬 sleep emerges from distributed motor control circuits regulating both somatic & autonomic activity.

And the "why"? 😴 Suppressing dopamine, noradrenaline & adrenaline may be key to healing our brain, body, & immune system.

📉 Sleep isn't passive—it's active neural choreography for recovery.

📚 Read if you're into neuroscience, systems biology, or sleep medicine.
