Last year, WHOOP collaborated with leading scientists at Harvard, Austin Health, and Australia’s Monash University on a major research effort to learn how the COVID-19 pandemic impacted our members’ physical and mental health. That study, known as the COVID Resilience Project, has now revealed an eye-opening connection between sleep duration, sleep consistency, and mental health resilience. WHOOP VP of Data Science and Research Emily Capodilupo sits down with researcher Mark Czeisler to discuss these findings, including the background of the COVID Resilience Project (4:07), COVID-19 and mental health (5:35), why researchers chose WHOOP for the study (7:44), changing behaviors during the pandemic (8:10), evaluating sleep and resilience (10:00), getting more sleep during lockdown (11:01), shifting bedtimes in the early days of COVID (14:09), why sleep consistency means better sleep quality (17:15), mental health and sleep (18:16), the prevalence of mental health conditions (20:39), and what The COPE Initiative is and their mission to understand emotional health during COVID-19 (24:25).
