Who could benefit from this research
✓Could help
Children and adolescents with psychiatric, behavioral, or neurodevelopmental concerns who participate in sleep and circadian research initiatives.
✕Less likely to help
Healthy children not enrolled in research or those not involved in sleep/mental health studies may see limited direct benefit.
What this research studies
The Administrative Core provides leadership, mentorship, and administrative support to grow sleep and circadian research in pediatric mental health. It helps coordinate advisory teams, track progress, and ensure sustainable infrastructure for junior investigators. The aim is to create a pathway for young scientists to develop independent, externally funded careers focused on sleep, circadian biology, and mental health in children and adolescents.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this center could accelerate new findings and training that improve sleep health and mental well-being in young people.
How similar studies have gone: Previous COBRE centers have shown that organized mentorship and infrastructure boost junior researchers and translational outputs.
