ASSM 2025 Meeting: Advancing Sleep Health in Asia

The Asian Society of Sleep Medicine (ASSM) 2025 Scientific Meeting was held as an integral component of World Sleep 2025, the 18th World Sleep Congress, in Singapore on September 6-7, 2025. As the official host society for World Sleep 2025, ASSM organized a comprehensive two-day program featuring keynote presentations, symposia, oral and poster abstract presentations, and specialized workshops focused on advancing sleep medicine and research across Asia.

The ASSM meeting program complemented the main World Sleep Congress (September 8-10, 2025) by providing focused sessions on regional sleep health challenges and fostering international exchange and knowledge transfer specific to Asian populations. This collaboration between ASSM and the World Sleep Society represents a unified effort to promote sleep health awareness and advance clinical practice globally while addressing the unique needs of the Asian sleep medicine community.
