International Longevity Centre explore sleep and healthy ageing
The International Longevity Centre UK (ILC) has shared a recording and slides from a webinar they held in January 2026 exploring the importance of good sleep for healthy ageing.
The webinar aimed to dispel common misconceptions about sleep and featured real-life experiences. It also included a contribution from Derk-Jan Dijk, Professor of Sleep and Physiology at the Surrey Sleep Research Centre, who addressed how sleep duration relates to memory performance and looked at data from monitoring sleep patterns in the homes of people with dementia.
