The Sleep & Circadian Innovation Summit: Translating Evidence into Mental Health Solutions is a one-day, in-person event is jointly organised by the Circadian Mental Health Network, Mental Health Platform, and MDC
​
In this summit, we will bring together academic researchers, clinicians, industry partners, funders, and patient-facing organisations to provide a forum to exchange perspectives on how sleep and circadian science can inform mental health and dementia research, clinical studies, and real-world applications.
​
Key topics will include:
-
Current research in sleep and circadian rhythms relevant to mental health and dementia
-
Use of sleep and circadian measures in human studies, cohorts, and clinical trials
-
Digital biomarkers, wearables, nearables, and data interpretation
-
Translational and clinical considerations, including chronotherapy approaches
-
Industry perspectives on data access, interoperability, and innovation priorities
-
Ethical, regulatory, and data governance challenges
​
We will have talks by researchers, industry representatives and funders exploring each of these topics.
The event is designed to encourage open discussion, cross-sector dialogue, and the exploration of future collaborative opportunities.
​
The full agenda is coming soon
