Dr. Stephanie Huwiler wins ETH Medal for Outstanding Thesis
Congratulations to our postdoc Dr. Stephanie Huwiler on winning the Silver Medal of ETH Zurich for Outstanding PhD theses for her doctoral work on ‘Functional role of sleep slow waves in cardiovascular health’.
In this work, she explored how auditory stimulation of sleep slow waves influences brain-autonomic interactions and cardiovascular function. By investigating these mechanisms, the thesis provides insights into the role of sleep in cardiovascular regulation and the potential of sleep-based interventions for promoting cardiovascular health.
