Professor Peter Cistulli

Peter Cistulli holds the ResMed Chair in Sleep Medicine at the University of Sydney, where he leads the Sleep Research Theme within the multidisciplinary Charles Perkins Centre. He heads the Discipline of Sleep Medicine within the Faculty of Medicine and Health. He is also Director of the Centre for Sleep Health & Research in the Department of Respiratory and Sleep Medicine at Royal North Shore Hospital, Sydney. He is an active clinician researcher with 28 years experience in in the fields of respiratory and sleep medicine. His thematic research has focussed on the pathophysiology of Sleep-disordered Breathing, and novel approaches to therapy. He pioneered the use of oral appliance therapy as an alternative to CPAP treatment for sleep apnoea. His research has been predominantly funded by the NHMRC of Australia, and he has achieved in excess of $20M in competitive funding. He has an extensive publication record, and has received international awards for his academic contributions to the sleep field. His interdisciplinary research program involves numerous national and international collaborations. He is a former President of the Australasian Sleep Association and a former board member of the Sleep Health Foundation.

His research has focussed on sleep-disordered breathing. He has developed an interdsiciplinary clinical research programme, spanning the study of the causes, consequences, diagnosis and management of sleep-disordered breathing. A focus has been on the interface between upper airway anatomy and physiology, and orofacial biology. This research programme has been evaluating the relationships between craniofacial and upper airway morphology and their interaction with obesity to promote breathing impairment during sleep, the genetic underpinnings of these relationships, and their diagnostic and therapeutic implications. Another theme is the impact of sleep disturbances (including abnormal sleep bahviours and sleep disorders) on chronic diseases such as obesity, cardiovascular disease, diabtetes, chronic respiratory diseases, and cancer. Consistent with the research strategy of the Charles Perkins Centre, there is an evolving focus on the interaction of sleep with other lifestyle factors, viz. nutrition and physical activity in the development of cardiometabolic dysfunction. The research program spans from bench to bedside and to public health. Other research interests include the role of new technologies as enablers of simplfied models of care for diagnosis and long-term monitoring of sleep health issues.
