Wendy Troxel<\/strong>, PhD, will be giving the Sleep and Performance Research Center\u2019s Seminar entitled \u201cUnderstanding Socio-environmental Determinants of Sleep: From Couples to Communities to Policy.\u201d<\/p>\nDr. Troxel is a Senior Behavioral Scientist at the RAND Corporation and is an Adjunct Professor at the University of Pittsburgh and University of Utah. Her research focuses on the interface between sleep, the social environment, and health, and the implications for public policy. Dr. Troxel is the leading authority on sleep in the context of close relationships and is author of the book \u201cSharing the Covers: Every Couple\u2019s Guide to Better Sleep\u201d.<\/p>\n
Sleep is a critical health behavior and one that is typically shared between adult romantic partners. However, the vast majority of sleep research has largely viewed sleep as an individual behavior. Her presentation will highlight Dr. Troxel\u2019s work that examines how social environments, from our closest connections to the neighborhoods in which we live, and the public policies under which we live, influence how we sleep. This collection of work will demonstrate that sleep is deeply embedded in our social environments and will highlight the importance of considering multi-level determinants of sleep health and sleep health disparities among marginalized populations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
