Check out one of our new studies below - led by the legendary @AmandaRebar and @drbengardner
Researchers recommend adding one more item to your list of New Year’s resolutions: getting enough sleep 😴. A recent study found that sleepiness increases reliance on habits – whether good 🏃🏽♀️ or bad 🍔. https://t.co/Tllo5cgwR5

Research shows a nap on night shift can reduce sleepiness, improve performance. But is there an optimal length of shut-eye? CQU researchers @PhDsleepy, Prof Sally Ferguson, @msprajcer and A/Prof Matthew Thomas have an @arc_gov_au grant to find out. MORE: https://t.co/377L9GTxP4

Excited to share that I have received an @arc_gov_au #DECRA. Over the next 3 years I will develop a digital assistant designed to help Australians working non-standard hours—like shiftworkers, on-call workers, and gig workers—optimise their sleep and physical activity.
Australia’s 5 million shiftworkers can look forward to smarter shuteye and healthier lifestyles, thanks to Australian Government backing for innovative #CQUniversity #sleep research. Congratulations @PhDsleepy! READ MORE: https://t.co/lJnyGuG0np

Major career highlight - attending the graduation of Dr @Georgia_tuckw! Since Georgia was the first PhD student i’ve supervised (alongside primary supervisor @PhDsleepy & Sally Ferguson) this day was mainly about me and my achievement so it was important to remind Georgia of that

A nation-wide search has kicked off to bust one of the biggest myths in science. It's about changing perceptions of what a scientist looks like by turning a new generation of women into the superstars of STEM. https://t.co/jGTbl0f1pZ
