Chancellor's Seminar Series - Sleeping Your Way to Success

Friday, April 04, 2008, 12:00 pm

Dr. Gregory Belenky
“Sleeping Your Way to Success:  Understanding Sleep in a 24/7 Society”

Dr. Belenky’s groundbreaking research examines the critical questions of sleep and performance in people going about their everyday lives.  The work of Belenky and his colleagues could change the way we view-and manage-our sleep:  as the critical performance resource it really is.

Belenky is heading studies investigating how sleep restriction affects the performance of professionals in high-stress jobs with long hours and irregular schedules, including police officers and first-year doctors.  These studies will break new ground in the study of sleep and medicine to determine the true impact of sleep restriction on performance and subsequent recovery.
