Research Day is our annual event that brings together researchers, trainees, and clinicians across campus to share advances in sleep and circadian research. The day typically features a keynote lecture by a leader in the field, oral presentations from selected trainees and investigators, and a poster session showcasing ongoing projects. Awards are presented for outstanding presentations, and attendees have opportunities for networking and professional development.

Friday, August 14th, 2026 from 9:00am-3:00pm in 150 HKRB
