Des joueurs des Remparts de Québec ont pris part à un projet de recherche sur le sommeil, réalisé par Guido Simonelli et @giorgiovaresco.bsky.social de @umontreal-en.bsky.social. nouvelles.umontreal.ca/article/2026... @facmed-umontreal.bsky.social @lhjmq.bsky.social

Une seule nuit de sommeil prolongé réduit la fatigue des hockeyeurs

Une seule nuit de sommeil prolongé suffit à réduire la fatigue et à améliorer la performance cognitive de jeunes hockeyeurs, selon une étude de l’UdeM menée auprès des joueurs des Remparts de Québec.

Proud to share our latest paper evaluating short, practical cognitive tests for monitoring athletes’ fatigability in challenging environments, and how this testing can help support performance in the field. doi.org/10.1371/jour...

Assessment of cognitive performance and fatigability in elite athletes: Short and portable protocols for field monitoring under hypoxia

Purpose This study aimed to evaluate whether short (~15 min) cognitive protocols can detect fatigability in normoxia versus normobaric hypoxia in elite youth athletes, using tasks directly transferabl...

🚨NEW! This work concludes the project we did with the Canadian team of short track to understand and improve sleep after long haul travels. In particular, for their world championships in Asia last year (~13 time zones crossed). Available at: doi.org/10.14814/phy...

🚨 New, OA in JOSR!🎄🎅 Very happy to share this one, done in collaboration with the ice hockey team of the Remparts de Quebec. Probably one of the best and most fun in-the-field study I've done so far, with plenty of potential practical applications. 👇 doi.org/10.1111/jsr....

@giorgiovaresco.bsky.social, Dubé, Bieuzen (National Institute of Sport of Québec), Yao and Simonelli (@ciusssducentre-sud.bsky.social) examine the impact of long-haul travel and 13 h time change on rest activity circadian rhythm in speed skaters during World Cup competitions. 📜 buff.ly/NQoyo0d

🚴The finals of the UCI E-cycling World Championships are approaching, and our paper on the topic has just been published in the Journal of Science and Cycling (open-access) on the 2023 edition held on @gozwift.bsky.social @zwiftinsider.com 👉https://jsc-journal.com/index.php/JSC/article/view/1043

🎊 new paper out! The last one of my Postdoc at Nantes Université, where we evaluated the effect of additional cognitive load on top of habitual training in reducing fatigue after 5 weeks. DM for full-txt journals.humankinetics.com/view/journal...

Since I was a student, preprint is a very discussed topic in open science, and I had the opportunity to discuss it in several steps of my academic journey. After reading this, I wanted to share some thoughts 1/12 scholarlykitchen.sspnet.org/2025/04/17/g...

Guest Post:  Preprints Serve the Anti-science Agenda – This Is Why We Need Peer Review - The Scholarly Kitchen

Science is built on a foundation of rigor and credibility. Preprints are adding to the crumbling of that foundation, which is already under attack by anti-science political agendas.

🌟 Mise en lumière de nos incroyables stagiaires au 12ᵉ Congrès de la Société Canadienne du Sommeil ! 🌟 La semaine dernière, nos talentueux stagiaires ont présenté leurs recherches à travers des communications orales et des affiches, contribuant ainsi à l’avancement des sciences du sommeil ! 🧠💡 💤

Sport science guys at the 12th canadian sleep society conference. Glad to be working in such nice group

Attending the 12th Canadian Sleep Society Conference? Sport fan? Come have a chat tomorrow (16th March) 👇 @umontreal.ca @reseausommeil.bsky.social

My latest podcast episode is up! We talk about @giorgiovaresco.bsky.social's work with speed skaters, the best times to wear the Re-Timer jet lag glasses, and the importance of social media in modern business. #jetlag #circadianrhythm #speedskating #performance www.youtube.com/watch?v=261U...
