Centre for Sleep Science

s the potential therapies to treat them. Our team of dedicated researchers, sleep scientists, academics and clinicians have successfully established themselves as world leaders in sleep science and health through their significant research contributions in the field. Our research spans a number of areas with a focus on investigating the causes of sleep disorders such as sleep apnoea as well as the consequences of poor sleep in adult and paediatric populations on mental and physical health and performance. Our presence also continues to grow and remain strong as a Centre leading a number of world first clinical trials from the investigation and evaluation of dental devices and nerve stimulation therapies for the treatment of sleep disordered breathing, through to assessing the safety and efficacy of medicinal cannabis use in insomnia. Our passions and expertise however extend beyond our research interests. With the importance of sleep and the consequences of sleep loss making its mark around the globe as a growing health priority, it became apparent that there was an absence of professional training courses to educate the growing field of sleep scientists, dentists and industry specialists who interact, manage and treat sleep disorders within our community on a daily basis. After 11 years running Graduate Certificate and Graduate Diploma courses in Sleep and Dental Sleep Medicine at the University of Western Australia, the Centre for Sleep Science are excited to now bring new and exclusive online training courses to the world. Whether you are just interested in sleep, wanting a career in the field or looking to further develop your skills and knowledge as a clinician in sleep science/medicine, dental sleep medicine or human performance, our new courses have been designed to suit your needs.
