Senior🎓
Top SchoolJoshua Wiley is a Senior Lecturer and behavioural medicine researcher at Monash University with 13 years’ experience studying sleep oncology, psycho-oncology, and resilience factors that support emotion regulation. He leads methodologically sophisticated work using cutting-edge analytics—hierarchical Bayesian models, joint models, and machine learning—to optimise interventions for sleep and mental health in both community and cancer patient samples. A NHMRC Emerging Leadership 2 Fellow (2026–2030), he combines academic leadership with practical consulting experience through Elkhart Group, translating complex analyses into publication-ready science and actionable stakeholder reports. Trained at UCLA (PhD, Health Psychology) and a former programmer-analyst, he uniquely bridges advanced quantitative methods, reproducible coding practices, and clinical relevance. Colleagues describe him as a rigorous yet applied scientist who uncovers subtle resilience mechanisms (e.g., optimism and mastery) that predict adaptive coping under adversity.
