Marijke Gordijn is co-author of a study that investigates how ambulatory measurements can help in estimating the phase and period of the human circadian clock. Light is the most potent time cue that synchronizes (entrains) the circadian pacemaker to the 24-h solar cycle. This entrainment process is an interplay between an individual’s daily light perception…
