Making research possible by bringing researchers together

Whether you’re a researcher, healthcare professional, or advocate, we invite you to join us in advancing the field of DS and sleep research. Together, we can make a lasting impact on the health and well-being of individuals with Down's Syndrome by addressing one of their most critical needs: sleep.

What we do

The Down Syndrome and Sleep Research Network will bring together leading experts to:

  • Collaborate on Research: Encourage cross-institutional research projects that address the most pressing sleep issues in the DS community.

  • Share Resources and Expertise: Facilitate the exchange of skills, tools, and data to enhance the quality and speed of research.

  • Enhance Recruitment and Stakeholder Engagement: Streamline participant recruitment for clinical trials and studies, and strengthen connections with families, healthcare providers, and the DS community.

  • Improve Diagnosis and Treatment: Develop new diagnostic tools and treatment protocols tailored specifically to the DS population, addressing their unique needs.

  • Disseminate Findings: Ensure that the latest research is shared widely and efficiently with medical professionals, caregivers, and families, so that discoveries quickly translate into better care.
