How colored light affects the brain and body
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests how different colors of light affect your brain and body responses. It might help researchers develop better ways to use light to improve health and well-being.

This study tests how different colors of light affect your body and mind, like your sleepiness and alertness. It's for healthy adults and involves sitting in a room with colored light while your reactions and brain activity are measured.
This study uses a light-based test (the “photomotor reflex”) to see how non-visual effects of light may affect sleep-wake timing, brain function, mental health, and eyesight. You may be assigned to a group based on your condition, or you may be in the healthy control group.
This study looks at how non-visual light (light that isn’t just for seeing) affects your sleep timing and circadian rhythms, and whether the effects differ by sex and age. It may help researchers design better light-based or sleep-support strategies in the future.
This study looks at how sleep, light, and your body's internal clock affect brain health. It involves staying in a controlled setting to measure these effects, which may help understand how to improve sleep and well-being.
This study looks at how your eyes react to light and how that relates to your sleep and body clock. By participating, you help researchers understand how light affects sleep and daily rhythms.
This study looks at how glaucoma affects your body's natural light sensing, which can impact sleep, alertness, mood, and memory. Researchers compare people with glaucoma to healthy volunteers to understand these effects better.
