The aim of this project is to improve the performance of Australia's elite athletes by enhancing the amount and quality of sleep that they obtain. This project will have three major benefits. First, successful role models will encourage more Australian children and adults to participate in sport. This is critical given that the incidence of obesity (a major risk factor for diabetes, cardiovascular disease and some cancers) has doubled in Australia in the last 15 years as participation in sport has dropped. Second, the success of our elite athletes will provide a source of pride in our achievements as a nation. Third, this research will enable the Australian Institute of Sport to remain as an international leader in sports science research.

该项目的目的是通过增加澳大利亚精英运动员的睡眠量和质量来提高他们的表现。该项目将带来三大好处。首先，成功的榜样将鼓励更多澳大利亚儿童和成人参与体育运动。鉴于澳大利亚肥胖症（糖尿病、心血管疾病和某些癌症的主要危险因素）的发病率在过去 15 年里随着体育运动参与度的下降而翻了一番，这一点至关重要。其次，我们优秀运动员的成功将为我们作为一个国家所取得的成就感到自豪。第三，这项研究将使澳大利亚体育研究所继续保持运动科学研究国际领先地位。
