@leaurahhh: When you pull an all nighter, your brain is not just tired. It actually loses some of its ability to rewire and learn new things. One study found that sleep actively restores plasticity in the human cortex so your brain can keep adapting instead of burning out. Nissen et al., “Sleep is more than rest for plasticity in the human cortex” (2021). #STEMTok #NeuroTikTok #SleepScience #BrainHealth #Neuroplasticity @Science to People
