In addition to the regular and invited lectures given by our faculty across Harvard and around the world, the Division of Sleep Medicine sponsors the following seminar series:

Retreat on Behavioral, Environmental, and Social Determinants of Sleep and Circadian Health and their Relationship to Sleep Health Disparities

Our 2-day in-person Retreat on Behavioral, Environmental, and Social Determinants of Sleep and Circadian Health and their Relationship to Sleep Health Disparities on June 1-2, 2023 will take place at Brigham and Women's Hospital. The primary goal is to collectively advance the expertise and research interests of our workforce to generate evidence that improves the health of all individuals, in particular those who have faced historic and systemic marginalization. This event will include presentations on the current state of knowledge in the field, appropriate methodology and translation to practice. There will be ample time for discussion.
