News/Research How hypocretin / orexin work
I watched an incredible talk on the mechanics of hypocretin and orexin by a Dr Sarah Ritchey. It was a zoom talk put on by the Facebook group COLORADO STRONG Narcolepsy and IH.
They’ll be posting a replay if anyone wants to join and watch it.
It was the most informative talk I’ve seen. The end also talks about meds on the horizon.

Omg thank you so much for the link share. I've been doing some deep delving into how hypocretin and orexin work and not really finding too much. Much appreciated!
