We celebrated another successful year in the Sleep Lab! This year's theme was Harry Potter Houses, and everyone got sorted into a different "house." As always, it was a very fun and productive year in the lab and we cannot thank our RA's enough for all of the tremendous work they provide!
We also said goodbye to three graduating RA's who had been lab members for a long time. We will greatly miss Amanda, Rachel, and Zoe and we wish them the best in their future careers!
Congratulations to Mike and Allison for presenting their work at the Society of Behavioral Medicine in New Orleans!
Allison presented her poster titled "I was paranoid millipedes were in my bed...and other reasons young adults voluntarily restrict their sleep."
Mike presented two posters: "Dual effects model of social control: Extending the Model to 24-Hour health behavior" and "24-hour health behavior: Daily influence of sleep and waking health behaviors"
Mike was also elected as the student liaison for the Sleep SIG Committee and is excited to serve in that position for the next year! Lastly, the SBM fantasy leagues celebrated a fun season!
Congratulations to Leah and Mike for presenting their work at the American Psychosomatic Society Conference in Louisville, KY.
Leah's presentation was titled "Does Cutting Caffeine Intake Improve Sleep?"
Mike's presentation was titled "The Link Between Social Contexts and Self-Reported Sleep in Rural Adolescents." Mike's poster was scored as one of the highest trainee submissions, and was selected to present his work as part of a Data Blitz.
