My primary research focus is to understand the mechanisms underlying sleep-related breathing disorders, such as obstructive sleep apnoea, and develop better ways to diagnose and treat them. I also investigate physical therapies to improve the lives of people with chronic lung disease. Both sleep disorders and lung disease are extremely common in Australia. Improving the health and quality of life of these individuals has important personal benefit and social and economic benefits.

我的主要研究重点是了解睡眠相关呼吸障碍（如阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停）的潜在机制，并开发更好的诊断和治疗方法。我也研究物理疗法来改善慢性肺病患者的生活。睡眠障碍和肺部疾病在澳大利亚极为常见。改善这些人的健康和生活质量具有重要的个人利益以及社会和经济利益。
