World Sleep Day 2024

World Sleep Day 2024 is a great opportunity to showcase the work of the TORCH network "Sleep and the Rhythms of Life" The network has explored a wide range of cross-disciplinary areas.

"Sleep and the Rhythms of Life" opens a dialogue between the humanities and the sciences and will contribute to shared knowledge production. Building on previous work in the medical humanities at the University of Oxford, it aims to bring together researchers with an interest in sleep across the academic divisions and to develop an innovative exchange that transcends traditional disciplinary boundaries and illuminates the importance of sleep from a diverse set of perspectives.

Explore more about both sleep and possibly staying awake as researcher and DJ Dr Michael Diamond and Professor Eric Clarke discuss their research seminar "Dance Music, Wakefulness and Embodied Rhythm".
