Peter Franzen PhD, is director of the Sleep and Behavioral Neuroscience Center and associate professor of psychiatry and clinical and translational science at the University of Pittsburgh. This podcast discusses teenagers’ shortened sleep patterns during critical high school years, when they must attend school at early times. These sleep changes affect teenagers’ reactivity, emotion, stress, pleasure (anhedonia), cognition, and substance use. In addition to sleep research findings, this podcast also discusses controversial school-based interventions to prevent negative outcomes.
