Missing Sleep, Missing Life Insomnia is a common and frustrating problem. And it's not just a nighttime problem.
Insomnia can lead to daytime fatigue, irritability and trouble concentrating.
Researchers at UPMC's Western Psychiatric Institute and Clinic are currently conducting two studies of Insomnia. One study is open to men and women between the ages of 20 and 30. The other study of Insomnia is open to men and women over the age of 65. This study looks to improve poor sleep, without the use of medication, by increasing our understanding of sleep, and encouraging behaviors which should promote healthy sleep. Participants in both Insomnia studies receive complete sleep evlautions in WPIC's Center for Clinical Neuroscience, and are paid upon completion of the study.
