The research focus of Naima Covassin, Ph.D., is understanding the impact of typical and disordered sleep on cardiometabolic health, with special emphasis on the role of sleep on blood pressure and body weight regulation. To this end, Dr. Covassin conducts mechanistic studies on healthy individuals and therapeutic clinical trials in patients with sleep disorders and cardiovascular diseases, collaborating closely with physicians and scientists from cardiovascular medicine, neurology and endocrinology.
Dr. Covassin's goal is to advance knowledge of the mechanisms through which poor sleep increases the risk of cardiovascular disease, and to contribute to the development of preventive and therapeutic strategies to reduce the disease burden associated with inadequate sleep.
Sleep disturbances are highly prevalent, and their detrimental effects on health are increasingly recognized. Furthering the understanding of the mechanisms mediating the relationship between poor sleep and cardiovascular outcomes is critical. This increased understanding will lead to the development of enhanced prevention strategies and better risk stratifications. Dr. Covassin aims to devise and apply individualized interventions to improve health via sleep optimization to enhance care and improve cardiovascular risk.
