Description
The Sleep and Motion Laboratory focuses on Motion during Sleep with main aim to study various aspects of human kinetics (including body, brain, heart and respiratory kinetics) during sleep. Research tools include wearable motion tracking systems, brain neurophysiology, behavioral assessments and monitoring of physiological functions.
In the field of sleep-related respiratory kinetics, we are interested in the relationship between thorax dynamics and respiratory function during sleep in patients with neuromuscular dysfunction and/or respiratory disorders.
Research includes clinical and translational sleep research in collaboration with the Sleep-Wake Laboratory at the UCY and the Sleep-Wake Outpatient Clinics at the General Hospital of Nicosia.
Our mission is to promote sleep science in Cyprus by encouraging and motivating enthusiastic and talented researchers from different backgrounds to participate in sleep research.
