Danny Eckert is a sleep and respiratory physiologist leading a research team at Neuroscience Research Australia (NeuRA). His research primarily investigates the aspects of sleep and upper airway physiology in humans. His main goals are to explore the multiple causes of obstructive sleep apnoea and to identify novel therapeutic targets for the development of new individualized approaches to therapy. Utilizing various neurophysiological techniques, his work studies human upper airway muscle activity, function, and airway mechanics during both wakefulness and sleep. Current research projects include determining the mechanisms of upper airway muscle dysfunction in sleep apnoea, assessing the role of pharmacological agents on upper airway physiology in sleep-disordered breathing, examining the incidence of sleep apnoea in individuals with spinal cord injury, and understanding the bidirectional relationship between sleep and brain functions. Furthermore, he is focused on developing targeted approaches to improve sleep and breathing through innovative therapies such as mandibular advancement.
