A sleep state that recurs cyclically several times during a normal period of sleep; Characterized by increased neuronal activity of the forebrain and midbrain, by depressed muscle tone, and esp. in humans by dreaming, rapid eye movements, and vascular congestion of the sex organs; Also called Paradoxical Sleep or Dream Sleep
Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep is the stage of sleep characterized by rapid movements of the eyes. It was discovered by Nathaniel Kleitman and Eugene Aserinsky in 1952. During this stage, the summed activity of the brain's neurons is quite similar to that during waking hours; for this reason, the phenomenon is often called paradoxical sleep.
