Hello #sleeptwitter! 👋

I'm a UK Primary Care Doctor, with a focus on #sleep disorders in #primarycare.

Sleep-related presentations span a number of #GP consultations, but sleep disorders are rarely recognised in their own right.

Looking forward to joining the conversation!

@ProfEspie @CambridgeUP @ESRS_Sleep 🙌 Just put my pre-order in @ProfEspie !

[Dr. Josh Kovoor @SleepGP]

@DoctorJLam Congrats Jimmy! I always enjoyed working with you when I was there. You’ll be fantastic :)

@Waymo I’m a Londoner (UK) in SF for 48hrs and desperate(!) to hop in and try it out. Can you help a Brit out?!

[Dr. Josh Kovoor @SleepGP]

Ngl, really gutted I was actually in the US but didn’t get a chance to fly over and attend #SLEEP2024 - next year hopefully!

[Dr. Josh Kovoor @SleepGP]

I’m just a UK Sleep GP here at #PAS2024 supporting my wife @PhilippaCRees in her Neonatal research BUT also secretly wishing I was on the other side of this door to listen to @LaurenHalePhD and others discussing: “Should Paediatricians Advocate Banning All Screens From Bedrooms?”

This paper was a labour of love for our team, and we are very excited to receive an Editors Choice from SLEEP!

We found a high persistence rate of insomnia symptoms (54%) over the first 12 months of the pandemic. We also found that sleep reactivity and sleep effort were major perpetuating factors of insomnia that need to be addressed.

A huge thanks to our team, Flora Le, Sean Drummond, Sukhjit Bains, @PVarma_sleep @MoiraJunge and @DrSleepPsych, for making this study possible!

[Dr. Josh Kovoor @SleepGP]

@SleepAndSports @UWMadison Awesome news Jesse!

[Dr. Josh Kovoor @SleepGP]

@SleepAndSports @ResearchSleep This is a massive contribution. Excited to take a look and hear your discussion, Jesse!

A bridge between Borbély and Drosophila might look something like this 👇 Interesting work!

This two-process model represents a powerful framework for work on the molecular and physiological regulation of fly #sleep. https://t.co/RD5qRj2iAz

@SleepAndSports BUT then again, the beach and a dog companion! ☺️ things could be worse!

[Dr. Josh Kovoor @SleepGP]

@SleepAndSports 💯 changing structural/societal barriers to good sleep health has surely got to be one of the highest bang for buck things to be done.
But I have no doubt it’s filled with lots of tumbleweed and lots of heartbreak…

[Dr. Josh Kovoor @SleepGP]

@michaelgrandner @MGHMedicine These students are way cooler than I was! Cultural shifts really are so powerful as public health influencers. (but can’t help think that “two million total Sleep Number smart-bed customers” might give a slight skewed sample 😅)

[Dr. Josh Kovoor @SleepGP]

There is no Paleo Sleep Solution.

No Mediterranean Sleep Method.

Definitely No Carnivore Sleep Correction.

Understand this, and realise that Sleep is your best confusion-free way to begin improving your health.

Hey my Aussie #sleeppeeps - I’m in Sydney for the next several weeks. Would love to connect if any of you are around and free to grab a coffee (or whatever else you cool people do here…)

[Dr. Josh Kovoor @SleepGP]

Did you know..? There’s a curious spike in acute insomnia every year around this time in the demographic of “kids from 1 to 92”.

🤗

Happy Christmas friends :)

[Dr. Josh Kovoor @SleepGP]

@sphynxkennedy 😂 where was this? Definitely a UK road sign.

[Dr. Josh Kovoor @SleepGP]

@SleepAndSports This just popped up in the comments for this tweet. 😂 I feel like it might have missed the mark a bit.

[Dr. Josh Kovoor @SleepGP]

@atubbs_sleep 😊 Was nervous to share it with you, but hope I did it some justice - hard to sum things like this up in such a short video!

Curve-ball...Energy Drinks help #sleep? 😴

Did findings from a 2010 research paper really just suggest this?... (1/5)
