BrainHQ Webinars

When we’re asleep, we might not be conscious—but our brains are still hard at work! In this live webinar, our expert scientists will talk about how and why. What sleep has to do with memory, why we dream (and have nightmares), how sleep quality affects cognitive health, the ways in which sleep changes over the course of a night and the span of a life—these topics and more will be up for discussion. Register now—and bring your questions about sleep, too!
