Janet Mullington, PhD
Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center
Dr. Janet Mullington is Professor of Neurology at the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and Harvard Medical School. Her area of expertise and research is in sleep deficiency and its associated pathobiological consequences for systems including inflammatory, autonomic, state-related neurosphysiology, cognitive and subjective fatigue and mood. Her research team uses highly controlled approaches to induce experimental sleep deficiency of different durations (doses) to study effects of the build-up of deficiency in healthy sleepers, as well as the recovery process when sleep resumes. In addition, translational work of her group tests the efficacy of manipulating the timing and duration of sleep in order to lower blood pressure in individuals with hypertension, with particular interest in sex differences.
Dr. Mullington is a Past President of the SRS and is currently co-chair of the SRS Advocacy Taskforce and a member of the SRS Sleep Research Network Taskforce.
