Abstract
â¢During adolescence, sleep behavior and physiology undergo significant maturation.â¢A pattern of chronic insufficient sleep is common for many teens.â¢Sleep in adolescence supports learning, memory, attention, cognition, and emotion processing.â¢Maturational changes to brain structure and function are reflected in the sleep EEG.â¢Sleep may offer a unique opportunity to probe the developing brain.
