When Mattia Balsamini and Raffaele Panizza — authors of Protege Noctem — visited the Centre for Chronobiology in Basel to gain first-hand insights into our work in human research on light, chronobiology and sleep, we had no idea what the final artwork would look like.
(more…)In "Claritas. Obscuritas" we dedicate ourselves to chronobiology and daylight research. The multidisciplinary performance deals with "light" and its effects on humans.
(more…)Congratulations to our PhD students Fatemeh Fazlali for winning a prize for her outstanding scientific poster and to Rafael Lazar for winning a travel grant for an excellent abstract submission at the SLTBR conference.
Curated by Anna Wirz-Justice together with Sarah Kenderdine, Marilyne Andersen, and Giulia Bini, the new exhibition of EPFL Pavilions Lighten Up! On Biology and Time focuses on chronobiology.
(more…)We are happy that our Paper "Changing color and intensity of LED lighting across the day impacts on circadian melatonin rhythms and sleep in healthy men" is a top cited paper in the Journal of Pineal Research.
On 13th March 2023, we will be part of the 26th Brain Awareness Week, organised by Neuroscience Network Basel. We will be hosting a tour of our laboratories, as well as holding talks and a podium discussion on the topic "Living in the right light". For details of this event, which will be in German, please see the programme.
