Course Audience: primary care, pediatrics, geriatrics, neurology, psychology, psychiatry, and cardiology physician
Overview:
The goal of this symposium is to expose health professionals and scientists with up-to-date information on the relation between sleep health and infectious diseases and the immune system.
Sleep is a vital physiological process that is crucial for the proper functioning of the human body. It is essential for the maintenance of optimal immune system function, mental health, and overall wellbeing. However, the relationship between sleep and infectious diseases has not been fully explored. As such, health professionals and scientists need up-to-date information on this topic.
The goal of the symposium is to provide cutting-edge information and research findings to clinicians and scientists at all stages of their careers and with diverse backgrounds and expertise. The program director and each speaker will engage with participants in an interactive setting where attendees can learn from program faculty. It is a platform for health professionals and scientists to discuss, identify, and explore aspects of sleep and infectious diseases and the immune system.
At the completion of the course, participants will be able to discuss, identify and explore the role of sleep and cardiovascular disease throughout the life course. The course aims to prepare health professionals in the broad fields of primary care, geriatrics, pediatrics, neurology, psychology, psychiatry, and cardiology for optimal patient outcomes. The symposium will provide attendees with insights on healthy conditions and disease states.
The symposium is open to medical doctors, researchers, nurses, physician assistants, and fellows. Participants can expect to learn about sleep and its role in the immune system in individuals in all stages of life. They will also gain knowledge of the interrelationships between sleep, immune function, and infectious diseases.
The course agenda includes discussions on various topics such as the Connection between Sleep and the Immune System, Sleep, and Stress, Sleep and Cardiovascular Disease, Sleep and Neurological Diseases, and Sleep Disorders.
