Summer SWIM:
Sleep and Circadian Workshop on Indispensable Methods
August 10-14, 2020
Registered attendees will receive a password to access pre-recorded presentations on fundamental concepts in sleep and circadian science and their relevance to public health. These presentations will be available on/about August 3, 2020.
During the Summer SWIM week (August 10-14), there will be live, interactive Q/A discussions moderated by Summer SWIM faculty and will include each of the session presenters. These sessions will also be recorded and will be available to attendees after the meeting.
