The sleeping brain is far from idle. Sleep plays a vital role in a range of mental and physical health domains that are vital for good learning, healthy development, and physical growth.

In this talk, Dr Knight will discuss sleep-dependent learning; the observation that memory for newly acquired information is strengthened following a night’s sleep. She will also make a case for promoting healthy sleeping habits in our children, as an effective and inexpensive way of providing an good foundation for education on an individual level.
