This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242), provides $435,426 to investigate sleep-related risk factors and underlying mechanisms for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The study aims to: 1) identify individuals with a trait susceptibility to acute sleep disturbances after trauma, and 2) determine the mechanisms by which these sleep disturbances predict PTSD. The research will leverage data from the AURORA study, a large emergency department-based network that longitudinally followed trauma survivors. The awardee, a partnership between Henry Ford Health and Michigan State University Health Sciences, will use psychophysiological methods such as actigraphy, fear-potentiated startle, skin conductance, and heart rate, along with advanced statistical techniques, to accomplish the study goals. The award runs from May 2024 through April 2028 and aligns with NIMH's strategic priorities of identifying risk factors and biomarkers for mental illness.
