Ludmer Public Lecture: Sleep and the ageing brain

Event Description

Healthy sleep is important throughout the life span and becomes more challenging with age. In this public lecture, we will explore how the brain mediates normal sleep and its importance to health, as well as how normal sleep can be disrupted and change with age and age-related pathologies. Join us and our panel of leading researchers to learn more about the impact of sleep on the ageing brain.
