Categories
Education and learning: The paper discusses a research festival at the University of Surrey, which includes a variety of research topics and guest speakers.
Well-being: The festival includes research on healthcare practice and well-being, focusing on the role of inter-disciplinary research to understand and improve the experience of people in healthcare.
Cognitive function and memory: The festival includes a lecture on how the brain controls the body, which relates to cognitive function and memory.
Heart disease: The festival includes research on the cellular origins of cardiac arrhythmias, which relates to heart disease.
Cancer treatment and prevention: The festival includes research on a tumour specific urinary biomarker for the early diagnosis of prostate cancer.
Sleep and insomnia: The festival includes research on the spectral composition of evening light and the delay of sleep in humans.
