Dr Dumuid’s research seeks to identify the healthiest way to spend our time across daily activities such as sleeping, screen time and exercise. Because there are only 24 hours in any day, this involves a balancing act between activities. Dr Dumuid’s work develops novel analytical models that explore how to get the balance right, not only for one aspect of health (e.g., obesity), but for overall health and wellbeing.
