Can Sleep Predict Neurodegenerative Risk? Inside EEG Biomarkers & Brain Health

In this episode of Science from the Field, host Ben Greenaway, sits down with Dan Levendowski from Advanced Brain Monitoring to explore how sleep and EEG biomarkers are reshaping the way we understand neurodegenerative disease risk.  The conversation traces the evolution of the Sleep Profiler, from early sleep measurement and EEG analysis to its role in identifying subtle brain changes associated with conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, Lewy body dementia, and REM sleep behaviour disorder. Dan explains how specific sleep characteristics including sleep architecture, non-REM hypertonia, autonomic activation, and time spent sleeping supine can act as early indicators of neurodegenerative risk, often years before cognitive symptoms appear. They also discuss the emerging science around glymphatic clearance during sleep, why sleeping position may matter, and how machine-learning models are being used to interpret complex biomarker data in a clinically meaningful way.  The episode also explores the ethical and practical questions that arise when identifying risk early: how clinicians communicate findings, how patients and families use this information for planning, and where this technology fits within both research and real-world clinical care.  This is a deep-dive episode for clinicians, researchers, and anyone interested in the intersection of sleep, brain health, and the future of neurodegenerative disease detection.

Welcome back to the BMedical Science from Field podcast series, where we shine a light on some of the amazing work being done here in our own backyard of Australia to further the fields of sleep and respiratory medicine. In celebration of our new partnership with Asthma Australia, this week, we're chatting to Anthony Flynn, Director of Health Knowledge and Translation at Asthma Australia.  Anthony oversees Asthma Australia's research program, strategic evaluations plans, and supervises the quality development of consumer information and education resources. He has a master's degree in social sciences and is a registered nurse who specialised in critical care nursing. He's responsible for connecting the needs of people with asthma with strategic research and evaluation decisions and translating that into consumer benefit. In this episode, Anthony shares his journey from critical care nursing to working with Asthma Australia, his experiences with Médecins Sans Frontières, and the challenges and successes in asthma research and education. He also discusses the importance of health literacy, the role of peak flow meters in asthma management, and exciting developments in asthma research, including the quest for a cure. Tune in to learn about Asthma Australia's mission, their resources for clinicians and patients, and how innovative partnerships and research are making a real difference in the lives of people with asthma. Plus, join us for the Huff and Puff Challenge and how you can support Asthma Australia.
