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 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 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 eating at night affects your sleep and body clock. You will spend two nights in a sleep lab to test the effects of a small meal before bed.
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 tests whether changing the light in a hospital room can improve sleep and help your body clock work better in older adults. It may be most helpful if sleep problems or irregular daily rhythms are affecting you in the hospital.
