Fighting jet lag with science: A new, evidence-based lighting design on Qantas's A350 aircraft could reduce passengers' jetlag by aligning their body clocks ⏱️ to their destination's time zone while still flying Research translation & impact, this unique design is the result of a partnership between @sydney_uni's @CPC_usyd, @Qantas + Caon Design Office ✈️ bit.ly/3SdKX70 @Sveta_Postnova @eatlikeanimals #ProjectSunrise

It’s Sleep Week! Today we look at Melatonin, the ‘hormone of darkness,’ naturally produced in the pineal gland at the base of the brain. But as we age, what happens to our sleep patterns when melatonin production declines? Discover the answers here: bit.ly/3rpuH8G

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