Draw either from existing knowledge or locate research articles pertaining to the three areas we discussed in class (sleep & aging, sleep & disease, sleep & environmental factors). Using complete sentences and appropriate sources of knowledge, describe your examples in >400 words (total, not including references) and supplement with graphs and/or pictures to showcase your scholarly skills and creativity.

With your help, we will discuss one of your examples in class, so please be prepared to explain to your fellow students what factors you chose and why.
