New paper 🚨
Biomathematical models can provide tailored shift work interventions, but can we implement them?
In this study, we examined whether nurses can adhere to personalised sleep recommendations provided using two models (the Phillips-Robinson Model and the Model of Arousal Dynamics). We also note some practical considerations for future use and delivery of personalised recommendations for shift workers.

Super stoked to share this! @tracey_sletten @Sveta_Postnova , @circadianumbers , @smwrajaratnam, Stuart Knock, Mark Howard.
Findings inform our current work (more on that later).

Amazing presentation by PhD candidate (and a New Investigator Award 🥇 ) @burge_malisa @_WorldSleep about the impact of light on how we think about ourselves.

And if you missed it earlier, @jademurray13 from @turnerinstitute spoke about the need for optimal, evidence based circadian health based interventions. Visit circadianhealthclinics.com to learn more about the International Association of Circadian Health Clinics!

Wonderful talk by @SleepWorkHealth @_WorldSleep explaining why industries need to care about shift work employees and the need to integrate experiences into research.

@tracey_sletten at @_WorldSleep discussing why we need to tailor intervention for shift workers and how evidence-based interventions can be implemented in practical ways
