This study shows that daytime light intensity influences sex differences in sleep and circadian regulation in mice, with brighter light reducing vulnerability to nighttime light.

This study shows that adverse effects of nighttime light in a neurodevelopmental disorder mouse model depend on circadian disruption, not light exposure alone.

This study shows that dim light at night increases seizure-like events and disrupts sleep in Cntnap2 knockout mice, with sex-specific effects.

This study shows that long-wavelength light reduces negative effects of dim light at night in Cntnap2 mice, improving activity rhythms and autistic behaviors.
