Research interests include big data, the impact of sleep upon mental health and ageing and she has taught and published across many aspects of sleep and sleep disorders.

Watching her teenage children on lockdown led to this particular talk title but she is happy to acknowledge many other parents may now feel that they are both expert and frustrated in equal measure.
