Thanks for your interest in participating in the sleep enhancement study from the MIT Fluid Interfaces Group!  This is a remote study that anyone can do using their smartphone.

In this study, you would place your phone on your bed while you sleep and complete some questionnaires about your sleep. The phone will play soft pulses of white noise during the night to attempt to deepen your sleep.

 In laboratory studies, researchers have found that these sounds cause the brain to produce more of the slow brainwaves associated with deep sleep. We are testing whether this technique can improve people's overall sleep quality, cognition, and mood.
