In the work-from-home age, we are spending more time than ever staring at blue-light emitting screens each day. While blue light isn’t all bad, circadian clock disruption has sprung a new age of blue light-filtering products and features that limit exposure. In this episode, Drew & Liv chat with neuroscience researcher, Dr. Josh Mouland, whose interests lie in our brain’s response to light. You will learn about melanopsin’s role in light perception and the misconceptions about blue light.
