Call for Papers – Light exposure in the Real world 💡🧠

We’re guest editing a special Collection in npj Biological Timing and Sleep that explores how light, the primary zeitgeber in humans, is measured and understood under naturalistic, everyday conditions.

Light exposure in the real world

This collection invites research on light exposure and its impact on human physiology and behaviour.

Light O'Clock @lightoclock.bsky.social · Apr 29

How does life in cities versus rural areas shape our circadian rhythms? How does access to electricity — or the lack of it — impact sleep timing? And what happens to our circadian rhythms when we move from an urban setting to camping outside? 🌆🏕️
