This award supports research to understand how sleep duration and timing affect brain function related to depression and anhedonia in adolescents, aiming to develop preventative interventions.
Description
The long-term objectives of this proposal are: 1) to evaluate a biobehavioral model of depressive symptoms and anhedonia in adolescents, and 2) to leverage sleep and circadian function to promote mental health. The research involves observational and experimental studies assessing sleep patterns, stressful life events, and brain function related to depression and anhedonia in adolescents.
