Sleep clock remains 24 hours says study in Science
The brain's sleep timing stays on a 24 hour cycle from youth to old age. Researchers led by Dr. Charles Creigler of Harvard Medical School say older adults do not suffer a longer day and insomnia theories may be flawed. The study, using subdued light for a month, shows light exposure can reset the clock and affect melatonin and cortisol release impacting sleep onset and waking.
