Dr. Marie-Hélène Pennestri Interviewed by Radio-Canada on Societal Sleep Concerns

On the eve of the long Thanksgiving weekend, Radio-Canada turned its attention to a subject that affects us all: sleep. A little over a week ago, Courrier International magazine's feature on the subject spoke of a worldwide epidemic of insomnia as well as a relationship with sleep that often turns into an obsession in our performance-driven societies. Radio-Canada spoke with Dr. Marie-Hélène Pennestri, Department of Educational and Counselling Psychology and Faculty of Education Associate Dean of Research and Innovation as well as Dr. Alex Desautels, neurologist and director of the Sleep Disorders Clinic at Sacré-Coeur Hospital.
