https://t.co/WGE0JTwRey via @YouTube Please take a look at our Nature Awards-Science in Shorts video about how nighttime light affects sleep. I would like to thank @SamerHattar @martinathurman @CorinneBeier @TenleyWeil for making it materialized!

The retinal ipRGC-preoptic circuit mediates the acute effect of light on sleep

How light modulates #sleep:

@SamerHattar & colleagues demonstrate that intrinsically #photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs) innervate the preoptic area.

Activation of this pathway ⬆️ non-REM sleep, by inhibiting activity in wake-promoting areas.

As you may know, nighttime light profoundly influences our sleep. So today let's start off with how dark affects our sleep first😬

If u r curious about whether red light affects sleep, maybe this paper could provide a little bit clue🙂. https://t.co/GMqG36vqWO
