Moving the Field Forward

Needs Goals
Limited public databases are available that contain BP, sleep times, and circadian rhythm data (including raw telemetry data) since most large cohort studies do not assess 24-hour BP or endogenous circadian rhythms. Online repositories for storage and analyses of circadian data widely accessible to all researchers
Leverage wearables and artificial intelligence (AI) to scale and improve evaluation of 24-hour BP, circadian rhythm, sleep and their inter-relationships.
Develop standardized approaches for annotating sleep timing in clinical and population studies. Move circadian medicine into the clinic based on adequate evidence
Support sufficiently powered prospective studies and strategic ancillary studies.
