Research project funded by the National Institute on Drug Abuse to study how methamphetamine-induced sleep disruption causes cognitive deficits, using monkey models and sleep/cognitive assessments, aiming to improve treatment strategies.
Description
This project hypothesizes that sleep disruption caused by methamphetamine leads to cognitive deficits, and aims to evaluate this through studies involving rhesus monkeys, sleep assessments, and cognitive testing. Positive results could support sleep treatment strategies to improve outcomes for methamphetamine users.
