tasks or process important information. For example, the
location responsive neurons tracked while a rat is running a
maze will reactive in the same procession while a rodent is
asleep, as if it were running the maze again. It's probably part

different pathways.  This study -trained- its subjects brains on
a set of images, and then recorded the same areas of the brain
being active while they slept. In short.. this study kinda
cheated. They were guarant
