Our BRC Better Sleep (BS) Theme aims to create a UK collaborating network that integrates research infrastructure and clinical services to deliver innovation in mental, cognitive and brain health research and care.
Sleep and circadian science sit at the heart of that vision, and the BS Theme are fully committed to delivering high quality experimental medicine research on new treatments and procedures for sleep and circadian problems. Their key aim is to exploit new sleep and circadian science to develop, test, and translate innovations to improve health.
- A budget will be made available to all University of Oxford, University of Surrey and NHS groups working on projects falling within the scope and aims of the Better Sleep Theme.
- Novel projects addressing sleep and circadian biology and medicine in human participants will be considered
- Applications are open to anyone working with, or sponsored by, an OH-BRC Better Sleep
