报告摘要: Insufficient sleep has multiple etiologies and is pervasive in contemporary societies. Millions of people sleep less than 7-8 hours per night, which is the minimum sleep duration to prevent cumulative deterioration in cognitive performance. Sleep loss not only impairs cognition and behavior, but also increases the risk for multiple diseases including obesity, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, depression, and prospective mortality. Specific neurocognitive domains affected by sleep deprivation include attention, memory and executive functions. In this talk, I will present some new findings from our multimodal brain imaging studies and other groups about the detrimental effects of sleep deprivation on brain function and behavior as well as its recovery.
