Switzerland and Malaysia study

Physiologically-relevant light exposure and light behaviour in Switzerland and Malaysia

Light plays a crucial role in syncing our internal clocks with the natural day-night cycle—vital for health and disease prevention. A new study compared real-world light exposure and behavior in Switzerland and Malaysia, revealing striking cultural and geographic differences.

Zero-inflated data visualization

How to deal with darkness: Modelling and visualization of zero-inflated personal light exposure data on a logarithmic scale

Handling zero-lux values in personal light exposure data is a major challenge in circadian and myopia research—especially when using common logarithmic methods. This study explores how to better visualize and model these tricky datasets using symlog scales and the Tweedie distribution.

Non-wear intervals in light exposure data

Collecting, detecting and handling non-wear intervals in longitudinal light exposure data

In wearable light studies, participants often remove devices, creating data gaps that can skew results. This study tested multiple ways to detect those non-wear periods—like button presses, app logs, and light/activity sensors—and compared their accuracy.
