Excellent couple of days at the @BritishSleepSoc #polysomnography (PSG) course. A really interesting course learning how conduct PSG studies, recognise artefacts and score #sleep stages. Looking forward to attending similar courses in the future!

Very pleased to have our latest paper included as one of the #APSselect winners for this month! @CHERC_UoE @ExeterSHS @ExeterDoctoral
