Light at Night, Shiftwork, and Breast Cancer Risk [PDF]
Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed female noncutaneous cancer in the United States and in Europe. The etiology of breast cancer is primarily unknown, with an estimated one quarter of all breast cancers possibly due to heritable factors (1) and only a minor proportion possibly due to already established environmental risk factors, such as ...

HKUST‐1/TiO2 composite materials show a very high photocatalytic hydrogen evolution rate which increases as a function of the irradiation time until reaching a plateau and even surpasses the performance of the 1%Pt/TiO2 material after three photocatalytic cycles.

On light as an alerting stimulus at night
Light exposure at night increases alertness; however, it is not clear if light affects nocturnal alertness in the same way that it affects measures of circadian regulation. The purpose of this study was to determine if a previously established functional relationship between light and nocturnal melatonin suppression was the same as that relating light ...

Micropatterned Biphasic Printed Electrodes for High‐Fidelity on‐Skin Bioelectronics
Micropatterned biphasic printed electrodes achieve unprecedented skin conformity and low impedance by combining liquid‐metal droplets with microstructured 3D lattices. This scalable approach enables high‐fidelity detection of ECG, EMG, and EEG signals, including alpha rhythms from the forehead, with long‐term comfort and stability.

Reported light in the sleep environment: enhancement of the sleep diary. [PDF]
BackgroundLight is the primary synchronizing cue for the circadian timing system, capable of exerting robust physiological effects, even with very dim and/or brief photic exposure. Mammals, including humans, are particularly susceptible to light at night.

Large‐scale human celebrations increase global light pollution
Culturally dependent human social behaviours involving artificial light usage can potentially affect light pollution patterns and thereby impact the night‐time ecology in populated areas, although to date this has not been examined globally. By analysing
