The growing interest in bright light as a remedy for the negative side effects of increased mobility (i.e. jetlag) and the expanding 24/7 society (i.e. night- and shiftwork) requires a fundamental understanding of the properties and effects of bright light. How bright light application affects physiological and psychological states of humans is the central question of this thesis. The results of the studies dealing with this question are summarized below ... Zie Summary
