A Review of the Current Science, will be presented by Tucker Peck.  Tucker is a doctoral student in the clinical psychology program at UA, and his research focuses on the effects of mindfulness meditation on sleep. Tucker will review the scientific literature on the effects of mindfulness meditation on insomnia, and rather than drawing a conclusion from the evidence, he will facilitate a group discussion of what conclusions can be drawn and what courses of action (if any) should be taken by scientists, meditators, and insomniacs.  Also, Tucker will write an email to the AMRIG listserv letting them know this information, an activity that is in progress and will, definitionally, be completed by the time you are reading this.
