June 29, 2010 by admin · Leave a Comment
For anyone who’s had trouble sleeping, we don’t have to tell you, life’s rough when you’re tired. Ben Rubin, Chief Technology Officer and Co-Founder of Zeo, will be at the conference to help us learn more about sleep. Using sleep data from our very own human guinea pig and conference host Kevin Kruse, he’ll talk about the importance of sleep, how it is measured, and how this type of technology can help us explore ways to measure body processes and improve quality of life.
And then we’ll give you a Zeo to try at home.
Thanks Ben!
