Sleepy, Grumpy, Dopey & Doc: In Search of a Good Night's Sleep
The May Live & Learn Lecture, “Sleepy, Grumpy, Dopey and Doc:  In Search of a Good Night’s Sleep,” will be presented by Thomas Bloxham, MD, FCCP, clinical assistant professor, Internal Medicine.  This presentation is Tuesday, May 8, at 11:30 a.m. The lecture series is at the KU School of Medicine – Wichita campus at 1010 N. Kansas, located at the 8th/9th Street exit on I-135. The event is free and open to the public, but reservations are requested by calling 316-293-2643.

Dr. Bloxham will discuss the prevalence of sleep complaints by the general population in the U.S., but also touch on issues specific to women and students.  Sleep habits, time, and schedules will be addressed, together with some common sleep disorders.  The lecture will also provide information about what to look for to determine if a family member, co-worker or significant other is suffering from sleep problems.

KMUW’s Frank Dudgeon will present an interview featuring Dr. Bloxham during Morning Edition, Monday, May 7 -- 5:50 a.m., 7:50 a.m., and 9:50 a.m.
