Welcome Message

On behalf of Indian Sleep Disorders Association and Nithra Institute of Sleep Sciences, it is our pleasure to invite you for the International Conference on Sleep Disorders to be held in Chennai, India from June 20-22, 2025 .
There is increasing focus on detection and management of Non-communicable diseases (NCD) to prevent long term problems. Most healthcare practitioners think of Hypertension, Diabetes, Obesity, Heart Diseases and Stroke and often forget Sleep Disorders which is more common and can lead to all of these. Let’s remember that Sleep Disorders contribute significantly to NCDs and there is a growing concern on its impact on comorbidities. We sincerely hope that the World Health Organization (WHO) would recognize Sleep disorders in the list of NCDs. The theme for our conference is in keeping with this issue “Sleep Disorder: A Noncommunicable Disease (NCD) not to be forgotten”
Our program is designed for all healthcare professionals as each one of us encounters patients with sleep problems and/or their related comorbidities. We are confident that the program is truly multidisciplinary and would appeal to general practitioners, Internists, Pulmonologists & Chest Medicine specialists, Neurologists, Psychiatrists, ENT specialists, Bariatric Surgeons, Pediatricians, Ophthalmologists, Psychologists, Physiologists & other basic scientists.
Focused workshops on ‘Pediatric Sleep Medicine”, “Dental Sleep Medicine”, “Sleep Technology” will be conducted and would offer hands on interactive experience.
We are proud to have a long list of reputed International and National faculty who have contributed their valuable time to enrich the conference. A great deal of attention and time has been spent in designing the scientific program with intellectually challenging sessions. In addition to Key note address by a thought leader, Oration, Plenary sessions, Pro-Con debates & panel discussions we will also have dedicated sessions for presentation of original research, difficult cases and a Sleep Medicine Quiz. We are confident that the participants would experience a great networking opportunity in addition to enriching their knowledge in Sleep Medicine.
Chennai (Formerly known as Madras) is the fourth largest city in India and capital of ‘Enchanting Tamilnadu’.
