My research focuses on understanding how the circuitry in a central part of the brain, specifically in the cerebral cortex, influences sleep-related brain activity and the build-up of sleep pressure. Beyond this, I am interested in broader aspects of sleep regulation. I am investigating how internally generated phantom percepts, such as tinnitus, interact with sleep processes and I have previously studied how waking experience modulates sleep pressure.
