Sensory-sleep dysfunction is a shared phenotype across genetically distinct neurodevelopmental disorder models

Sensory abnormalities and sleep disruption frequently co-occur in neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs), but how sensory input interacts with sleep regulation in NDDs remains poorly understood. Here, we examined vibration-induced sleep (VIS), in which prolonged gentle vibration promotes sleep in Drosophila, in three gene...
