“Associations Between Objective and Subjective Sleep Quality in AUD/CUD Recovery”
Nathanael is investigating how alcohol and cannabis use disorders affect sleep. He is using two non-invasive imaging techniques to measure brain activity during sleep for people in residential treatment. He is also comparing objective measures of sleep quality with self-reported experiences of sleep. The Padula lab plans to study these measures over time to see how they change during recovery.
