In this curated special issue of Metabolism, we focus on the associations between sleep and metabolism featuring review articles
by worldwide leading experts in the field. Sleep is critical to human life and wellbeing.
Sleep is a time of restoration and rejuvenation that is essential to a number of human
biological systems, including brain function, immune response, and metabolism; thus,
we spend a great deal of time asleep- around a third of our lives. Insufficient and/or
poor quality sleep has been linked to obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease

]. Although information about these connections has been rapidly growing over the
past few years, the field is still in need of treatments that can address both the
sleep disorder and the resultant metabolic dysfunctions. In this issue, we highlight
the state of the field in terms of research about sleep and metabolism connections
as well as current therapies.To read this article in full you will need to make a payment
