Sleep deprivation may additionally affect memory by reducing the proliferation of cells in the hippocampus.

During sleep deprivation studies, a laboratory rat is housed in a water filled enclosure with a single small, dry platform (traditionally, an upside down flowerpot in a bucket of water, from which the technique is named) just above the water line (>1 cm). While in NREM sleep, the rat retains muscle tone and can
