A research 'dream team' is collating a database to better understand how, when and why dreams occur.
A Monash University-led international paper (co-authored by 53 authors across 37 institutes across the world) published in Nature Communications, explains how the international DREAM database has evolved to coordinate existing research and encourage more.
The researchers explain that neuroimaging studies of dreaming are essential to investigate the neurocognitive processes of consciousness during sleep, but limited by the number of observations that can be collected per study.
As a result, more research releasing such data is needed to better understand when, how and why we dream.
