Sleep is essential to every aspect of women’s health — from physical and mental well-being to hormonal balance and long-term disease prevention. Yet many women experience unique sleep challenges that are often underrecognized and undertreated. The American Academy of Sleep Medicine is committed to advancing research and solutions to improve sleep health for women at every life stage — from adolescence and reproductive years to pregnancy, menopause, and beyond. ♀️ Learn more here: hubs.la/Q04641560 #womenshealth #sleephealth #womenshistorymonth

As we prepare to spring forward this weekend, we want to remind you of the AASM's position on Daylight Saving Time. It is the position of the AASM that the United States should eliminate seasonal time changes in favor of permanent ST, which aligns best with human circadian biology. Evidence supports the distinct benefits of ST for health and safety, while also underscoring the potential harms that result from seasonal time changes to and from DST.

Should I say... disappointed but not surprised? To some, this has never been about science. It's a corporate world and a race towards personal gain.

Beautiful project I have the privilege to be a part of. Led by @Tiago_deAndrade, this is all you need to now of the present and the future of Circadian Medicine (in Portuguese!).
