Altug Didikoglu’s talk titled “Species and Photoreceptor-Specific Quantification of Light”

[Robert Lucas @RobLucasDar]

How to measure light for laboratory mammals? How to replicate experimental conditions? What light for husbandry? Delighted to announce the publication of our consensus view answering these questions (summarised in Box 3).

Lighting conditions for lab mammals are currently set according to the sensitivity of human #vision.

This Consensus View defines alternative ‘animal-centric’ metrics and provides guidance for their use in #research to improve animal #welfare.

Spectrawear (our open-source wearable a-opic light dosimeter) has been in action to reveal associations between personal light exposure and subjective daytime sleepiness + the timing of night-time sleep in everyday life https://t.co/4sQdyh65VX

[Robert Lucas @RobLucasDar]

How should you measure light to predict its appearance to non-human mammals and what constitutes healthy lighting for animal husbandry? Here’s what we agreed when we met in Manchester earlier this year to discuss https://t.co/DjUButbeH5

Do you think your sleep timings are healthy? Think again! Altug says chronotype a.k.a your sleep timing preferences can be an underlying cause for many health problems you face as you age. Best to be that morning person (no really!)#ThinkingAgeing #ThinkingTogether @MICRA_Ageing
