[9] He was also a visiting scientist in the Scripps Research Institute's Department of Molecular Biology, a visiting professor at the University of Perugia's Istituto di Biologia Cellulare, and a National Academy of Sciences National Research Council research associate at NASA's Ames ...
Espie is an Emeritus Professor in the College of Medical, Veterinary and Life Sciences at the University of Glasgow. He is Deputy Editor for the Journal of Sleep Research, the official journal of the ESRS, serves on the Editorial Board of Sleep Medicine Reviews and holds or has held many positions on national and international committees relating to sleep disorders and their treatment.
Sleep is a monthly peer-reviewed medical journal covering research on sleep. Topics include basic and neuroscience studies of sleep, in vitro and animal models of sleep, studies in clinical or population samples, clinical trials, and epidemiologic studies. It is the official journal of the Sleep Research Society.
His research there has focused on behavioral, psychological, and neural development. In 1997, Blumberg was honored with an APA Distinguished Scientific Early Career Award for his research on behavioral and physiological development. [2] In 2002, his first book, Body Heat: Temperature and Life on Earth, was published by Harvard University Press.
The research suggests that taking measures to reverse the epigenetic changes caused by gestational sleep fragmentation decreases the susceptibility of individuals to metabolic disorders such as diabetes and preeclampsia. More research is needed to identify biomarkers that will allow for the diagnosis and treatment of sleep disorders.
The insights about separate sleep and wake mechanisms represent real scientific advances, as Ian Parker documented in a 2013 account of Belsomra’s development for The New Yorker. Someday, the discovery might even lead to major advances in treatment. But those advances have not yet been made.
Behavior Modification (BMO) is a peer-reviewed academic journal that presents insightful research, reports, and reviews on behavioral psychology. The current editor is Dr. Mandy Rispoli who is a Quantitative Foundation Bicentennial Professor at the University of Virginia .
One of the important questions in sleep research is clearly defining the sleep state. This problem arises because sleep was traditionally defined as a state of consciousness and not as a physiological state, [14] [15] thus there was no clear definition of what minimum set of events constitute sleep and distinguish it from other states of partial or no consciousness.
