Cycles of circadian illuminance are sufficient to entrain and maintain circadian locomotor rhythms in Drosophila
Light at night disrupts the circadian clock and causes serious health problems in the modern world. Here, we show that newly developed four-package light-emitting diodes (LEDs) can provide harmless lighting at night. To quantify the effects of light on the circadian clock, we employed the concept of...
