Fatigue Research

Fatigue research studies how physical and mental tiredness affects the body and mind over time. It explores how factors like activity, stress, and sleep influence fatigue levels, and aims to find ways to prevent or reduce its impact. This research is important for improving safety, productivity, and well-being in areas such as transportation, healthcare, sports, and workplaces. By understanding fatigue better, scientists develop strategies and tools—like work schedules, training programs, or recovery methods—to help individuals stay alert, perform effectively, and avoid errors caused by tiredness.
