DESCRIPTION:*Please note that there is quite a long waiting list for this 
 event. Please accept our apologies in advance if those on the waiting list
  are unable to get in. We will endeavour to run these talks again in recog
 nition of the level of interest*\n\n\nIn this special SciBar\, which is pa
 rt of the British Science Week and Cambridge Science Festival\, we will ha
 ve two speakers talking about the science of sleep\, dreams\, and consciou
 sness.\n\nDr Valdas Noreika\, from the MRC Cognition and Brain Sciences Un
 it\, will talk about “Jumping in Dreams While Being Paralysed in Bed: Th
 e Science of Sleep and Dreaming”. Every night our minds go through compl
 ex cycles of changing perception\, ranging from dreamless sleep to intense
  nightmares and\, if we are lucky\, lucid dreams. Recently\, these extraor
 dinary experiences\, as well as their clinical manifestations\, have been 
 linked to specific changes of the brain activity during sleep.\n\nDr Anat 
 Arzi\, from the Cambridge Consciousness and Cognition lab\, will talk abou
 t “The unique interaction between sleep\, learning and olfaction”. Eve
 n when we sleep our brain keeps on being active\, processing information f
 rom the environment\, and consolidating memories. But can we learn new inf
 ormation in sleep? and how is it all related to our sense of smell?\n\nThi
 s event is now ticketed due to demand. Please book your free ticket here: 
 http://scibarsleep2018.eventbrite.co.uk\n\nTalks start at 7pm.  Please arr
 ive early.\nDue to a long waiting list\, it is unlikely for there to be sp
 aces without a ticket. Apologies in advance.\n
