School start time research report

Dr. Horacio de la Iglesia will present new research on the effect of school start time on student health and performance Thursday, Jan. 30, from 5 to 6:30 p.m. in the Neill Public Library Hecht Room. His talk will be sponsored by Neill Public Library and the WSU graduate and professional student Science Policy Initiative.

Dr. de la Iglesia will present his findings on how students’ minds changed, and what later start times could do for parents, teachers, students and Pullman.

Dr. de la Iglesia is a professor of Biology at the University of Washington where he is researching circadian rhythms and its effect on human and animal biology.

The event is free to the public and requires no registration, but seating is limited. Light refreshments will be served.
