Who could benefit from this research

Could help

Children and adolescents participating in sleep and circadian rhythm studies or who may later be recruited by projects supported by the core.

Less likely to help

Healthy volunteers or patients not involved in sleep or circadian studies may not directly benefit.

What this research studies

This grant supports a dedicated core at Bradley Hospital that helps researchers use sleep tracking, brain activity measures, and biological samples in youth studies. It provides training, resources, and best-practice guidance to make sleep and circadian research safer, more accurate, and easier to conduct in at-risk youth. The core focuses on sustaining and expanding capabilities for data collection, analysis, and interpretation of sleep-related information in children and teens.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, patients could benefit from higher-quality sleep research that informs better mental health interventions for youth.

How similar studies have gone: Previous phases showed improved research capacity and use of sleep measures in similar pediatric settings.
