Does hearing "pink noise" during sleep enhance the washing away of "brain waste"? MIT experiments in humans, published in a Science-family journal

The paper "Closed-loop auditory stimulation in phase with slow waves during sleep enhances cerebrospinal fluid flow in humans," published in Science Translational Medicine by researchers affiliated with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and other institutions, is a research report that examined whether the flow of cerebrospinal fluid, which washes away waste products in the brain, can be artificially promoted by delivering sound at specific timings during sleep.
