The Laboratory for Sleep &
Behavioral Neuroscience at UCSD, headed by Sean Drummond, PhD, has an
overarching research focus of better understanding the influence of sleep and
sleep loss on cognition and brain function. Some of our research interests include:
the effects of sleep deprivation on brain
function, the role of sleep on memory consolidation, cognitive function in
obstructive sleep apnea, neuropsychological function in primary insomnia, sleep
in traumatic brain injury patients, and treatment of nightmares and insomnia in
veterans with post traumatic stress disorder.
