The World Sleep 2025 scientific program features over 350 hours of content, including symposia, keynote lectures, workshops, discussion groups, and special events. With so much to choose from, we recommend taking a few minutes to explore the schedule in advance—and building your personal agenda using our planning tools.
Read on for helpful tips and examples!
6 Tips for Navigating the World Sleep 2025 Schedule
1 – Search iPlanner to Explore the Schedule
The best way to explore the scientific program is through the interactive schedule tool, known as iPlanner.
Search by session title, speaker, or topic. You can filter by date, session type, or room. Star sessions you’re interested in to build a personalized schedule.
2 – Use “List View” in the iPlanner
The “List View” function displays the schedule in chronological order from the start to the end of each day.
Some previous attendees of World Sleep have found the list view to be easier for scanning the program – simply scroll through to see the complete session title, time, and location for each session. Click on any session to open its complete details.
Click “List” where indicated by the red arrow below to open list view. You can click the screenshot to open list view directly for Monday, September 8.
3 – Save Sessions with iPlanner
You can use iPlanner to build your own personal agenda, saving sessions of interest so that they’re easy to find later.
Let’s say you’re attending on Tuesday, September 9. Here’s how to build your daily schedule:
Open the iPlanner and filter by Tuesday.
Search for topics like circadian rhythms or health risks.
Star sessions like:
- “S-47: Beyond the lab: Measuring sleep and circadian rhythms in naturalistic settings” View Session
- “S-65: Night shift work and health risks: Internal desynchrony and underlying mechanisms” View Session
Once you’ve starred a few sessions, you can easily access them later by viewing your Favourites. This lets you build a personalized list of sessions, courses and workshops that you are interested in attending at the congress.
4 – Download the Preliminary PDF Program
If you like to scroll through everything at once, the Preliminary Program is for you.
