Environmental Circadian Lighting

The ECL module aims to provide new scientific knowledge and a larger conceptual framework on how to integrate the promotion of targeted (day-)light exposure with personalized circadian health approaches to healthy aging.  The goal is to integrate human biological aspects and daylighting from different perspectives, also in accordance with goals of the World Health Organization.

More information about ongoing studies you can find here (in German).

The module Environmental Circadian Lighting is led by Dr. habil. Mirjam Münch at the Centre for Chronobiology in Basel.
