Neuroscientists Dr. Rolf Joho (left) and Dr. Felipe Espinosa are studying a human disorder called sleep maintenance insomnia, in which sufferers can get to sleep, but don't remain at rest for long. Their findings in mice may help scientists better understand the disorder and provide an animal model for developing treatments.
