Kimberly A. Honn, PhD, is the current President of the Working Time Society and was co-chair of the 2019 WTS International Symposium in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, USA. She is a member of the Sleep and Performance Research Center and Associate Professor in the Department of Translational Medicine and Physiology at Washington State University in Spokane, WA, USA. Her research focuses on the effects of sleep loss and shift work schedules on cognitive performance, safety, and health. In the sleep laboratory, she uses specially designed computerized tests to identify particular cognitive functions that are most vulnerable or most resilient to the effects of sleep deprivation alone or in combination with stress, caffeine, and other factors to determine how to predict or prevent sleep loss-related errors. This research is translated into real-world settings through simulator and field research projects in commercial transportation, including aviation, trucking, and rail.
