Very happy to say my sleep deprivation study from my PhD has been published in the Journal of Sleep Research. Specifically, we found that sleep deprivation may impair the inhibition of irrelevant memories from working memory, which is reversed after recovery sleep.

I deleted X a long while ago, yet I've put off hard launching a BlueSky for over a year. It's sort of sad seeing all my documented efforts as a student etc lost to the void that was Twitter. And so, because I'm stickler for chronology, I thought I'd post a lil synopsis of the last few years here!
