Sleep Monitoring Lab
Core Facilities Seminar
Rebecca Spencer, Director and Professor of Psychological and Brain Sciences–Assessing Sleep Physiology and Function
The only sleep research facility in the region equipped for overnight sleep studies to access sleep and sleep physiology. The center has three bedrooms that can be used for polysomnography, the gold standard for sleep measurement.
-
- Online sleep monitoring from a central control room, allowing for sleep stage specific manipulations.
- Bedrooms that are heavily sound-attenuated, temperature controlled, and shielded from electrical noise.
- Access to real-time recordings from the Control Room which allow for monitoring of data quality and manipulations of sleep.
- A laundry facility (for washing room linens), and a sink in the control room for washing electrodes and caps.
- 128-channel MRI-compatible EEG
