The network was created to provide a forum for discussion and communication about the various aspects of sleep research carried out within the University.

Our events allow sleep researchers to interact, such that new collaborations and joint interests can arise organically. We invite external speakers to present their work about different aspects of sleep, and organise an annual meeting at which our students can present their most recent results.

Aims

To provide:

  • information about sleep research in Cardiff
  • information about events and opportunities offered by the network
  • a platform to promote cross-school and NHS collaboration
  • a way to raise the profile of sleep research in Cardiff.

Projects

Planned group projects include:

  • closed loop auditory stimulation of the sleeping rodent brain
  • closed loop auditory stimulation of the human brain with EEG-fMRI
  • home monitoring of sleep in health and disease
