High sensitivity and interindividual variability in the response of the human circadian system to evening light

PNAS June 11, 2019 116 (24) 12019-12024; first published May 28, 2019 https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.1901824116 Significance: Electric lighting has fundamentally altered how the human circadian clock synchronizes to the day/night cycle. Exposure to light after dusk is pervasive in the modern world. We examined group-level sensitivity of the circadian system to evening light and the degree to which sensitivity varies between individuals. We … Continue reading High sensitivity and interindividual variability in the response of the human circadian system to evening light
