University of Chicago Sleep Research Center

The University of Chicago Sleep Research Center studies how sleep affects health, cognition, and daily functioning. They investigate sleep patterns, disorders, and the impact of variables like stress, environment, and lifestyle on sleep quality. Using advanced technology such as sleep studies and brain imaging, their research aims to understand sleep mechanisms and develop treatments for sleep problems. The center also explores how sleep influences overall well-being, learning, and mental health, ultimately contributing to improved health outcomes and evidence-based interventions for sleep-related issues.
