Our group studies the full bandwidth of these oscillations &#8211; from a few milliseconds to several weeks &#8211; as independent scientific research team. Changes in sleep and wake states and the pattern of cerebral and vegatative functions underlying them implicitly encode several key aspects of the human behavior repertoire (e.g. cognitive functions, intelligence, personality), including health-related phenomena (e.g. nightmares, developmental disorders, epilepsy). Our goal is to decipher this code and to generate applied knowledge.<br \/>\nWe work as graduate and postgraduate course administrators, lecturers and seminar teachers, providing an education portfolio focused on sleep research, consciousness and psychophysiology for the medical psychology classes and the specialized PhD training courses of the university.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Selected publications from the last five years<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>P\u00e9ter P Ujma, R\u00f3bert B\u00f3dizs, Martin Dresler: Sleep and intelligence: critical review and future directions.
