EPSRC PhD studentship on sleep and wellbeing - Open!
This joint PhD between Psychology and WMG will present an opportunity for the successful student to develop and pilot a sleep intervention for sub-clinical insomnia in students at university and adults at work, as part of the Psychology-led Student Mental Health and Resilience in Transition (SMaRT) project and the WMG-led Midlands Engine Mental Health and Productivity project. Based on the insomnia literature and previous research carried out by the proposed supervisors, the successful student will investigate ways to enhance motivation to improve sleep health and the effectiveness of sleep hygiene in terms of content and delivery format.
This is for a Dec 2019 start. Get in touch if you are interested.
