Trouble sleeping?

 There is an exciting new study involving cancer survivors that is being conducted in Dr. Sheila Garland’s Sleep, Health, and Wellness Lab at Memorial University of Newfoundland (MUN). The purpose of the study is to examine the efficacy of smartphone-delivered Cognitive Behaviour Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) in improving sleep among cancer survivors.

We are recruiting cancer survivors across Canada who have problems with sleep and who have either 1. completed active cancer treatment at least three months ago, or 2. who have been considered clinically stable for at least three months.
Sleep is foundational to physical and mental health and quality of life. Despite sleep difficulties being one of the most common challenges experienced by cancer survivors, it remains one of the most undertreated. This research is an important step toward making effective insomnia treatment accessible to cancer survivors.
