Podcast: Light O'Clock
Erschienen: 13.10.2026
Dauer: 22:00
In this episode, we speak with Roos Bos, a PhD researcher in the Netherlands studying how light exposure affects preterm infants in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Roos breaks down: - How the circadian system develops before and after birth - How the NICU environment differs from the rhythmic environment of the womb - Why light-dark cycles may matter during this sensitive period of development and what we currently know about lighting interventions in the NICU - How time cues, such as feeding, breast milk and temperature could help support developing circadian rhythms
