Amazing first conference presentation from Dayna Easton 🙌 Dayna showed that cognitive performance across consecutive nightshifts is influenced by the interaction between physical activity & circadian type. Lots of exciting work to come from Dayna! Appleton Institute

Amazing job Emma 🥳 it’s been so good to work with you and the team!

Officially wrapping up my PhD data collection! 545 screened applicants, 40 nightshifts, and endless lab shenanigans. Thank you Dr Charlotte Gupta for being in the trenches with me, and to @Sal_Ferguson Grace Vincent Georgia tuckwell for supporting us and our sleep deprived energy!

Exactly 3 years later, on Nov 24 2022, data collection has ended! 26 runs of the 7-day Sleepy Sitting study, 125 participants, >18,000 minutes of continuous glucose data, 6500 minutes of PVT data, one exhausted post-doc (me), two PhD students, and 6 CIs (tagged👇)

This was such a fun experience! It’s so important that we have these discussions early 😴😴

Really exciting talk by Prerna Varma, PhD on using biomathematical modelling to co-design sleep recommendations with real shift workers. Shift worker perspectives are so important for intervention sustainability! World Sleep Society

Super exciting to witness preliminary data from Dr Julia Stone on the use of light sensitivity parameters to predict individual differences in circadian timing in shift workers! So many important implications! World Sleep Society 😴

Amazing talk by Alisha Guyett at World Sleep Society on using circadian-informed lighting to facilitate circadian adaptation to the nightshift under simulated submariner conditions!

So honoured to be a part of this day with ACS and to have received a Research Excellence Award and a Best Presentation Award! A big congratulations to Dr Charlotte Gupta, Ashley Montero, Luis Mascaro and all the other well deserving winners!

Our pre NEST Fest lunch! So great to meet and chat with other student and ECR attendees of #SDU23 yesterday before a great afternoon of sessions at NEST Fest Australasian Sleep Association

Amazing presentation by Alisha Guyett on the relationship between core body temperature and changes in cognitive performance in simulated submariner conditions!

Super exciting and emerging research from Nicole Stuart out of the Adelaide Institute for Sleep Health looking at tripolar concentric ring electrodes vs EEG on localised brain activity! #SDU23

Always so inspired by my team and colleagues! #SDU23

My amazing supervisor Dr Charlotte Gupta presenting driving performance data from our Sleepy and Sitting study! Loved seeing all of our teams hard work showcased at #SDU23 😴😴

Excited to share our paper in JASSB! We explored the prioritisation of the pillars of health (😴🥗🏃‍♂️) in 1151 Aus adults & 533 shiftworkers. Aus adults = 🥗 1st & shiftworkers = 😴 1st. Read the paper to find out if this was related to actual health behaviour…

So excited about my first publication - a perspective paper in Communications Biology! We discuss how physical activity could facilitate Shiftwork adaptation across three timeframes: Within-Shift, Within-Block, and Within-Workspan.
