The research team at the Biological Rhythms Research Laboratory of Rush University Medical Center has studied sleep patterns and the 24-hour (“circadian”) clock for over 30 years. Currently, they are conducting an NIH-funded study about the timing of bright light to reset the body clock of young adults to make it easier to sleep at an earlier clock time. The results of this study could be used to develop strategies for young adults who need to reset their body clock for things that require waking up early like classes and work. The study is 2 weeks long, and participants stay in Rush's lab for a total of 7 days. Participants will be paid $925 for successfully completing the entire study.
