Sustained Attention Neuroimaging in Sleep Apnea
Description: Project Narrative/Relevance to Public Health: Sleep apnea patients with excessive daytime sleepiness are at highest risk for crashes related to drowsy driving. This proposal aims to identify the brain regions most impacted by sleep apnea and understand the underlying causes of individual differences in impact of sleep apnea. The long-term goal of this K25 is for Dr. Parekh to become an independent quantitative investigator capable of using cutting-edge mathematical tools to develop night-time biomarkers for daytime sleepiness.
