Hey
everyone! I've recently completely renovated and expanded this site. In
fact, it's so much expanded that I wanted to start it fresh at a new
domain. You can check out the new home, along with brand new outreach projects, at
End-Your-Sleep-Deprivation.com
Warmly,

Stanford Sleep Outreach Projects
Each year, Stanford students in the university's Sleep and Dreams class create projects to spread knowledge about sleep. Teenagers, college students, and adults are as a whole drastically uneducated about even basic sleep science, and this doesn't seem to make sense given the monumental importance of sleep. It consumes a third of our lives, and its mistreatment is the cause for large amounts of accidents and deaths every year, as well as a massive fallout in productivity.With this in mind, the Stanford students have undertaken the task of reaching more people about the importance of sleep, and imparting a plethora of sleep knowledge along the way. The projects listed vary in what they address and take the shape of childrens' books, brochures, videos, newspaper and magazine articles, even a letter to the President of the United States, and more.
