Sleep problems are very common in people with traumatic brain injury and not just after severe injuries. Recent research from Monash University has looked in to mechanisms via which sleep problems may occur after head injuries and strategies that can be used to improve symptoms. In this episode Moira and David talk with Dr Natalie Grima, Clinical Neuropsychologist, about her experience working with people with traumatic brain injury and sleep problems.
Dr Moira Junge (Health Psychologist) and Dr David Cunnington (Sleep Physician) host the monthly podcast, Sleep Talk, talking all things sleep.
