Wellcome - Sleep and Circadian Science Research

Grants will be awarded for research projects that advance understanding of the dynamic changes in sleep and circadian rhythm across trajectories and phases of anxiety, depression, and psychosis, in different developmental, geographical, societal, and cultural contexts. This should involve research projects that will advance knowledge concerning at least one of the following: the biological and/or psychological mechanisms through which sleep and circadian disruption influence and are influenced by anxiety, depression, and psychosis; identification and/or validation of sleep and circadian markers that enable early stratification of people with anxiety, depression, and/or psychosis; and development of novel or improved early interventions for anxiety, depression, and psychosis, which target sleep and/or circadian processes.
