Cathy A Goldstein

[gentle music] I'm Cathy Goldstein.

I am a sleep neurologist and professor of neurology at University of Michigan, and my biggest interest in sleep is wearable sleep tracking.

I'm Dr. Jesse Cook, specializing in sleep psychology and behavioral sleep medicine, and the thing I'm most passionate about in sleep is the intersection of sleep and mental health.

I'm sad to report that Dr. Saima Thahir is not gonna be joining us today, but I think this will happen kinda naturally as we pick up momentum.

You know, we're all very busy people, and sometimes our availabilities don't always align.

Uh, I am joined today by Dr. Shelby Harris and Dr. Cathy Goldstein, and I am Dr. Jesse Cook, and we are the Sleep Doctors.

And today, we're gonna be talking more deeply about sleep measurement.

It's come up in most of our episodes thus far, but I think we're gonna take a deeper dive, and we thought about this as a team, that a devoted episode, or maybe more, is important here as we kinda opened a door in a recent episode on consumer wearable sleep tracking technology and some of the current, uh, hot water that's surrounding those devices when it comes to legal lawsuits and their measurement capabilities.
