► The NeuroLogger® enables long-term recordings of sleep and activity in marmosets. ► The Remo200 system allowed for long-term measurement of core body temperature. ► Methods allow simultaneous registration of unrestrained pair-housed marmosets. ► Sleep deprivation leads to a homeostatic sleep rebou...
