The Hellenic Sleep Society organized with great success the 13th Panhellenic Congress on Sleep Medicine in Athens, on 3-5 November 2023. The aim of this conference was to investigate the effects of insomnia on an individual’s health, but also on driving performance. Through a driving simulator experiment, it was observed that patients with chronic insomnia drive at a higher speed than participants without insomnia, have a reduced ability to maintain a stable lateral position of their vehicle, and their reaction time to most events appears to be slower than participants without insomnia. NTUA actively contributed with the following poster:
