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? 🌆🏕️

In the first episode of Season 3 of Light O'Clock, we explore the short- and long-term health effects of DST, the challenges of assessing this impact, and why public opinion seems to contradict expert recommendations when it comes to clock changes.

This weekend, Europe will switch to Daylight Saving Time (DST), moving clocks forward by one hour ⏰ While many people may enjoy more daylight in the evening, scientists in sleep and circadian research argue that DST can be harmful to our health. But why, and what's the evidence?

We cover the controversies around clock changes and school start times, discuss how indoor lifestyles might be affecting our vision, compare rhythms of people living in big cities and rural areas, and assess the impact of light pollution on both human health and the environment.

🎙️ The Light O’Clock podcast is back with a brand new season!

In the upcoming five episodes, we look beyond the biology of body clocks to explore how our modern world shapes our biological rhythms — and how politics and society influence decisions about our body clocks.
