Research
Focus
- Broadly, my research revolves around the interaction between sleep and neurologic disease, including evaluation of sleep in Parkinsons disease and investigations into the prototypical sleep movement disorder, restless legs syndrome. More recently, I have begun investigating novel treatments for CNS hypersomnia, focusing on negative allosteric modulators of the GABA-A receptor.
