Program Overview:
Sleep Across the Life Cycle: Implications for Health & Treatment Considerations
VIRTUAL CONFERENCE
The goal of this symposium is to expose
health professionals and scientists with up-to-date information on the relation
between sleep health and infectious diseases and the immune system.
Learning Objectives
At the
completion of this course, participants will be able to discuss, identify, and
explore aspects of sleep and cardiovascular disease throughout the life course.
Participants will gain knowledge of this topic in healthy conditions and
disease states. Our goals are to provide cutting-edge information and research
findings to clinicians and scientists at all stages of their career and with
diverse background and expertise; to create an interactive setting via
discussions with each speaker and program director in which attendees can meet
and learn from program faculty; and to discuss sleep’s role in the immune
system in individuals in all stages of life.
