The day saw a fantastic array of presentations, ranging from new dementia diagnosis tools to the utility of brain banks in this field. A special thanks to @Proteintech , @mshedbristol , and to all of our presenters for making the day what it was.

Excellent couple of days at the @BritishSleepSoc #polysomnography (PSG) course. A really interesting course learning how conduct PSG studies, recognise artefacts and score #sleep stages. Looking forward to attending similar courses in the future!

Excessively hot nights caused by #ClimateChange are predicted to increase the mortality rate by up to 60% by the end of the century, new research suggests. Nighttime heat may interrupt #sleep, and less sleep may lead to higher risk of diseases & illnesses. unc.live/3zIRSeb
