Researchers have identified 10 molecular biomarkers in saliva that can detect 24-hour sleep deprivation with 94% accuracy, marking a significant step toward developing noninvasive roadside testing. This breakthrough study offers a potential forensic tool to address the critical public health challenge of drowsy driving.
The field of sleep medicine can improve ICU patients' outcomes during their hospital stays and even after discharge. But first, we need progress on at least three key fronts.
Clarivate has named three sleep scientists as 2023 Citation Laureates, researchers whose work is deemed to be of Nobel class.
