Welcome and Introduction
9:00 AM - 9:30 AMBiography
Prof Peter Catcheside
Professor, Fhmri Sleep Health
Flinders University
Understanding current technology: overview of devices and functionalities
9:30 AM - 9:45 AMBiography
Prof Peter Catcheside completed his PhD in exercise physiology and worked in exercise, respiratory and sleep scientific support roles before joining the Adelaide Institute for Sleep Health in 1997 and Flinders University in 2012 through an ARC Future Fellowship. He has broad research interests around understanding physiological signals and processes underpinning breathing, sleep and circadian disruption towards improved clinical physiological measurement practices in respiratory and sleep medicine. Current research interests include the development of circadian physiology informed methods for daily body-clock tracking and adjustments, and respiratory physiology-based methods for quantifying airway obstruction and breathing effort during sleep and assisted ventilation.

Assoc Prof Amy Reynolds
Associate Professor, Clinical Sleep Health
Flinders University
A day in the life: using sleep technology in sleep psychology clinics
12:00 PM - 12:30 PMBiography
Associate Professor Amy Reynolds is a clinical epidemiologist and provisional psychologist with research expertise in the relationships between non-standard work schedules (particularly shift work), health and safety. She is the current co-lead of the insomnia, shift work and body clock disruption theme at the Adelaide Institute for Sleep Health, Flinders University.
Her key research focus is the experiences of shift workers living with sleep problems, many of which go undiagnosed and untreated for extended periods of time. She uses mixed research methodologies in her research program, including working with large datasets, such as the multigenerational Raine Study, qualitative approaches, and intervention trials.
