Funded Activity Summary

Obstructive Sleep Apnoea is a major health concern, affecting at least 4% of the population, associated with obesity, and aging. The symptoms of sleep apnoea are definitively associated with cardiovascular complications. I am focused on understanding how sleep apnoea patients are remodelled with the rewiring of connections between the brain and muscles. Using neurophysiological techniques, this project will study how the anatomy and functional connections of circuits change with sleep apnoea.
