Decrements in sleep health, including insufficient sleep duration, irregular timing of sleep, poor sleep quality, and sleep/circadian disorders are wide-spread in modern society and are associated with an array of disease risks and outcomes, including those contributing to health disparities (e.g. cardiovascular disease, obesity and diabetes, psychiatric illness and cancer). Recent findings have uncovered racial/ethnic and socioeconomic position differences in sleep health, however the contribution of sleep deficiency to health disparities remains largely unexplored, and understanding the underlying causes of disparities in sleep health is only beginning to emerge. In 2011, the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute convened a workshop, bringing together sleep and health disparities investigators, to identify research gaps and opportunities to advance sleep and health disparities science. This article provides a brief background and rationale for the workshop, and disseminates the research recommendations and priorities resulting from the working group discussions.
