Sleep science is the study of sleep and its various impacts on health, behavior, and well-being. It encompasses multiple disciplines, including psychology, physiology, neuroscience, and medicine, to understand sleep patterns, mechanisms, and disorders. Researchers in sleep science analyze how sleep affects cognitive functions, emotional regulation, physical health, and overall quality of life. The field also examines the biological processes that regulate sleep, such as circadian rhythms, and investigates sleep-related disorders like insomnia, sleep apnea, and narcolepsy. Through this research, sleep science aims to improve sleep quality and address issues related to sleep deprivation and disturbances, ultimately contributing to better health outcomes.
