- the relationship of sleep with emotion, cognition, memory, and metabolism
- the association between sleep patterns and neurodegenerative diseases
- the relationship between healthy cognitive aging and sleep
- circadian rhythm, sleep, and mood
- napping and its effects on cognition, memory, and mood
- the effects of caffeine on sleep
On dream, we investigate:
- the content of dreams and its effects on the daily life of the dreamer
- electrophysiological correlates of different kinds of dreams, like big dreams
Concerning hypnosis, we study on:
- the behavioral, cognitive and neural correlates of hypnosis
- hypnotic dreams and their therapeutic effects
- the modeling of hypnotic confabulation
Furthermore, we particularly interest in critical analytical thinking.
