March 17 is World Sleep Day, and it might be a challenge for teens and pre-teens to get all the shuteye they need this month. Between the start of Daylight Saving Time and the arrival of spring and all of the activities that come with the warmer months, there are plenty of events that can disrupt a good night's rest.
This month’s "Pulse" guest is talking all about sleep — and the lack thereof — and how prolonged loss of sleep impacts children. Ze Wang, PhD, is a professor at the University of Maryland School of Medicine in the Department of Diagnostic Radiology and Nuclear Medicine. He and a team of researchers published findings, in the journal Lancet Child & Adolescent Health, from analyzing data provided by the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) study.
Wang shares what the study revealed, what kind of cognitive impacts resulted from a lack of sleep, and what the impact of later school start times have on children’s sleep.
