This scientist studied her own brain to explain why the benefits of a good night's sleep can be felt 15 days later
Briefly

Ana Triana Hoyos conducted a five-month study on her own brain activity, linking it to external factors like exercise, sleep, stress, and mood, revealing that these influences linger.
Hoyos emphasized that most studies collect limited data, providing only a snapshot of brain activity. Her research diverged by exploring her brain's dynamics over time in depth.
Through her innovative approach, Hoyos illustrated how neuronal activity resembles a river’s flow—constantly changing and evolving—focusing on dynamic transformations rather than static observations.
The conclusion of her study highlights that brain activities are not isolated but influenced by various factors outside the brain, echoing for about fifteen days.
