Event Details

There is little argument that without sleep, we are functional basket cases. However, scientists are still hard at work digging into the mystery of why we NEED to sleep at all. In this lecture, we will attempt to shed light on the function of sleep, by diving into the neuro-genetic investigations that reveal a surprising connection between sleep, waking experience, and aging brain health.
