It goes from the brainstem, the pons, up to the thalamus, a part of it called the geniculate, and then out to the back of the brain called the occipital cortex, PGO.

它从脑干、脑桥伸到丘脑一个部分，称为内侧膝状体，然后外到达大脑后部称为枕叶皮层地方，即脑桥-内侧膝状体-枕叶。

Hence, this PGO waves describes the three sites that I've just mentioned.

因此，这些脑桥-内侧膝状体-枕叶描述了我刚才提到三个部位。

What they found was that those bursts of PGO wave activity were very much linked to these rapid eye movements.

他们现，这些脑桥-内侧膝状体-枕叶活动与快速眼动密切相关。

What is thought about PGO waves?

关于脑桥-内侧膝状体-枕叶有什么看法？

PGO waves don't simply just hit the back of your brain.

脑桥-内侧膝状体-枕叶不仅仅只是影响你大脑后部。

So once you got this burst of a PGO wave, this sort of brainstem up into the brain burst, then you got one of these rapid eye movements.

所以一旦你有了这种脑桥-内侧膝状体-枕叶，也就是从脑干到大脑，然后你就有了这些快速眼动。

Not so much that those PGO waves seem to consolidate memories.

并不是说那些脑桥-内侧膝状体-枕叶似乎在巩固记忆。

There's also been some links with those PGO waves and learning.

还有一些关于脑桥-内侧膝状体-枕叶与学习联系。

And the more that animals learn, the greater the amount of PGO wave activity they have when they go to sleep.

动物学习得越多，它们睡觉时产生脑桥-内侧膝状体-枕叶活动就越强烈。
