She is Director of the Analytic and Modeling Unit (AMU) in the Division of Sleep Medicine at the Brigham and Women’s Hospital at Harvard Medical School. She is responsible for landmark studies involving melatonin agonists on sleep and circadian rhythm (cover article in Lancet, 2008) and the effects of chronic sleep restriction (cover article, Science Translational Medicine, 2010).  Other interests include sleep and circadian rhythm in the blind,  sleep and performance in the aging, the effects of chronic sleep restriction on neurobehavioral performance and alertness, and the effects of light and darkness on circadian rhythms.
