最近的研究在做梦睡眠的神经生物学提供了新的证据，可能的结构和功能基板的正式方面的梦想的过程。这些数据表明，做梦睡眠是由脑干神经元机制在生理学上决定和塑造的，可以在生理学和数学上建模。对梦理论具有强烈影响的发生器过程的形式特征包括前脑激活的周期性和自动性，这表明睡眠中梦心理状态的预编程神经基础;脑干感觉运动回路（包括网状神经元、眼神经元和前庭神经元）的强烈和零星激活，可能决定梦意象的时空方面;以及发射器比率的变化，可能解释梦健忘症。作者认为，自动激活的前脑通过比较特定脑干回路中产生的信息与存储在记忆中的信息来合成梦境。
Recent research in the neurobiology of dreaming sleep provides new evidence for possible structural and functional substrates of formal aspects of the dream process. The data suggest that dreaming sleep is physiologically determined and shaped by a brain stem neuronal mechanism that can be modeled physiologically and mathematically. Formal features of the generator processes with strong implications for dream theory include periodicity and automaticity of forebrain activation, suggesting a preprogrammed neural basis for dream mentation in sleep; intense and sporadic activation of brain stem sensorimotor circuits including reticular, oculomotor, and vestibular neurons, possibly determining spatiotemporal aspects of dream imagery; and shifts in transmitter ratios, possibly accounting for dream amnesia. The authors suggest that the automatically activated forebrain synthesizes the dream by comparing information generated in specific brain stem circuits with information stored in memory.
