Sleep Research
Sleep research at the Johns Hopkins Sleep Disorders Centers spans a number of medical disciplines in the Departments of Neurology, Psychiatry and Pulmonary Medicine. Research programs are currently investigating the inter-relationships between sleep and breathing, movement and pain disorders, metabolic effects of sleep-disordered breathing, and the impact of substance abuse on sleep and neurocognitive function. These research programs employ basic molecular, physiologic, clinical and epidemiologic approaches to the investigation of the pathogenesis and consequences of sleep disorders.
