Summary
This study looks at how sleep and body clocks affect the brains of teenagers and their risk for using substances like alcohol or drugs. Researchers will monitor the sleep patterns and brain activity of 200 healthy teens aged 13-18. The goal is to understand how changes in sleep and daily rhythms might make some teens more impulsive or sensitive to rewards, which could lead to substance use.
