Popis: In the past few decades, advances in understanding sleep-wake neurophysiology have occurred hand-in-hand with advances in mathematical modeling of sleep and wake. In this review, we summarize recent updates in modeling the timing and durations of sleep and wake, the underlying neurophysiology of sleep and wake, and the application of these models in understanding cognition and disease. Throughout, we highlight the role modeling has played in developing our understanding of sleep and its underlying mechanisms. We present open questions and controversies in the field and propose the utility of individualized models of sleep for precision sleep medicine.
