Rest, busyness and hubbub at the The Wellcome Trust

11/5/2014

0 Comments

 
October 2014 saw the launch of the Hubbub project, a two-year Wellcome Trust-funded investigation into the dynamics of rest and busyness in modern life. Research will be conducted by the Hubbub Group, an international team of scientists, humanists, clinicians, public health experts, broadcasters and public engagement professionals who will explore rest, noise, tumult, activity and work as they operate in mental health, neuroscience, the arts and the everyday. Readers of Sleep Cultures will want to check out the first blog posting on the Hubbub website, which contains a brief but fascinating discussion by the anthropologist Josh Berson of his work with the polyphasic sleeping community.
