May 1, 2006 · Bright light can influence human psychophysiology instantaneously by inducing endocrine (suppression of melatonin, increasing cortisol levels), other physiological changes (enhancement of core body temperature), and psychological changes (reduction of sleepiness, increase of alertness). Its broad range of action is reflected in the wide field of applications, ranging from optimizing a work ...

The Human Response to Lightcourse covers in detail how we respond to light, both natural and artificial. Correlated color temperature (K)– describes a light source in relation to the color of a black body (such as the sun) at a particular temperature in Kelvins. It is a general measure of the “warmth” or “coolness” of white light.
Apr 23, 2024 · “Translating findings on how light exposure affects the brain in animal models to humans is a difficult process, as the later maturation of the cortex in human beings enables much more complex cognitive processing,” explains lead author Islay Campbell, former PhD student at the GIGA-CRC Human Imaging – now awarded her doctorate – University of Liège, Belgium.
