We are under way!

After receiving IRB approval, we are sending out orders for the equipment that we currently have funding for! This is an exciting step, and I'm happy to see it happening after months of preparation.

Thank you to all for your continued support!

Keep sharing the word of this project so that we can get a few more people on board!

About This Project

Sleep is beneficial for memory formation. Consequently, those with poor sleep quality (e.g., older adults) also have increased forgetfulness. Improving sleep quality using a known mechanism -- mild skin warming -- should improve memory formation in adults. Enhancing sleep by natural means (a water-infused skin-warming suit!) to enhance memory formation could impact the lives of countless older adults who suffer from memory deficits.
