Any neurologists out there with a background in sleep research who would be willing to be interviewed for a CNET article on delayed sleep phase disorder/syndrome?

I’ve got a young writer who could use some help. Long shot, but if you see this message and would be willing to help with an interview, let me know. Thanks!

@BillySmith Thanks. I’m trying to help a colleague in need …

How … would I post to Fediscience? I know there are groups like Bookstodon, but I’m not sure of the address here … ?

Is there an alias or an account to tag?

Thanks again for the help and any further direction

@peterbutler Pulmonologist also do a lot of sleep studies.
@mlawlor I think specifically b/c delayed sleep phase syndrome has been considered a neurological condition, we’d love to find a neurologist, but I will put the word out for pulmonologists too. Thanks
@peterbutler Not a neurologist, but an excellent researcher in this area: https://profiles.mountsinai.org/mariana-figueiro2

@drdkimhy Thanks so much. She definitely has the research background in the right topic!I will pass along her info to my writer
@peterbutler It may be too late, but I cannot recommend SciLine enough. They are good to have in your toolbox — and your reporter’s. Who they’ll help (general media) and when are limited, but the sources they dig up are amazing. https://www.sciline.org/

@MadelineBodin Thank you for the tip! It’s not too late at all. She’s got time … I forwarded her the info and asked her to give it a try. It’s certainly worth a shot. Thanks again
@peterbutler know some of the top sleep experts in London - they have mental health and neurology backgrounds - happy to connect
@samirshah Thanks, Samir. My writer has made a good connection with a researcher at Mt. Sinai but I appreciate the offer. I will reach out if we need additional expertise. Thanks again
@peterbutler no problem apologies mostly on bluesky nowadays
