The reason light is so important is that it sets our circadian rhythm, or body clock, via specialised light sensors within the eye. Our eye detects the light and dark cycle within our environment ...

Researchers at UC San Diego discovered that artificial light significantly disrupts the circadian rhythms of honey bees, ...

A new study has found that artificial light disrupts the circadian rhythms of honey bees and poses ... that support ecosystem stability and global food security. Without pollination, crops worth ...

The circadian rhythm, our body’s internal clock, orchestrates the sleep-wake cycle. Exposure to natural light during the day ...

Your circadian rhythm is naturally aligned with the sun, so you get tired as the sun goes down and alert with exposure to ...

Circadian rhythms are biological cycles within organisms that allow them to adjust their physiology and behavior to anticipate and adapt to changes in the outside environment. Circadian rhythms ...

Circadian rhythms are controlled centrally by the suprachiasmatic nucleus, and are most strongly infuenced by light. Lüthi and colleagues show that activity of the locus coeruleus (LC ...

The reason? Shifting circadian rhythms thanks to decreased exposure to light. Circadian rhythms affect — and are affected by — a lot more than you might think.They determine our sleep-wake cycle, our ...
