SESSION 1—SLEEP DISORDERS AND SLEEP DISRUPTION IN CNS DISORDERS

  • Examine the prevalence and nature of sleep disturbances across CNS disorders to include insomnias, hypersomnias, disorders of the sleep/wake schedule, and parasomnias.
  • Discuss methodological gaps in sleep research and the need for standardization and harmonization of approaches.

SESSION 2—UNDERLYING MECHANISMS OF SLEEP

  • Consider opportunities to better understand underlying mechanisms of sleep by leveraging advances from ongoing efforts (e.g., BRAIN Initiative) to integrate behavioral outputs with brain network and neural circuit activity.
  • Explore how a genes-first approach can illuminate the bidirectional relationship between disturbed sleep and CNS disorders.
  • Consider the impact of altered circadian timing on sleep quantity and quality and associated comorbidities, for example, CNS disorders.

SESSION 3 (PART A)—RISK AND MITIGATABLE TARGETS FOR BRAIN DISORDERS (PSYCHIATRY)

  • Consider potential relationships among disturbed sleep, CNS disorders, and environmental factors associated with both disturbed sleep and increased risk for CNS disorders, including discussing related disparities and approaches to disentangling causal versus contributing factors.
  • Explore the potential of sleep as a modifiable target by drugs, devices, and behavioral modifications, as well as a measurable marker related to CNS function, including standardization and common data format requirements to facilitate deeper and cross-therapeutic understanding of sleep.
