Associate Professor at Turner Institute for Brain and Mental Health, School of Psychological Sciences, Monash University

I am an Associate Professor in the School of Psychological Sciences at Monash University. I am a registered Psychologist, specialising in the treatment of sleep disorders, and an Honorary Research Fellow at the Institute for Breathing and Sleep, Austin Health. I completed my PhD in Neuropsychology and Sleep in 2009, after which I took up a postdoctoral position at the Sleep and Performance Research Center, Washington State University, USA from 2009-2011. My main research interest is in memory function and mood in obstructive sleep apnoea and other sleep disorders, and the role of treatment for sleep for improving mental health and cognitive outcomes.
