This session was recorded during Sleep DownUnder 2024. Increasingly in this era of an explosion of sleep stories in the media (and particularly on social media), there is a great risk of misinformation. It is essential that researchers help to accelerate the translation of their science via digital creativity and don’t just leave it to unqualified TikTok influencers! The researchers in this session have produced a short video to explain the benefits and/or potential impacts of their research.
