Consciousness in Health Research Lab
at Northwestern University

Welcome to the Consciousness in Health Research Lab!

Consciousness is defined as 
"the state of being awake and aware of oneself and one's surroundings." Our lab is dedicated to better understanding the role of consciousness in health and the many ways in which being awake and aware can serve as one of the most important positive health behaviors we can adopt and maintain throughout our lives.

​Our work broadly focuses on discovering and supporting novel ways in which people with chronic medical conditions can become more engaged in their own self-care and health promotion through self-management support, measurement science, digital health applications, and mind-body and behavioral interventions.

We greatly value the wisdom of our community partners in our work, which helps us think outside of the "ivory tower box" that we can find ourselves trapped in sometimes. Through team science collaborations, we are able to create, validate, and disseminate implementable health care solutions that won't just wind up in an academic journal that no one will read, but will instead be effective, actionable, scalable, economical, and relevant.
