The Science of Light: How Circadian Lighting Enhances Sleep, Mood & Performance

ASHB sits down with Robert Soler, Chief Scientist and Founder of BIOS Lighting, to explore the profound impact of human-centric and circadian lighting on sleep, mood, and overall well-being. With a background in NASA’s research on lighting for astronauts, Robert shares insights into how the right kind of light can boost productivity, enhance focus, and even improve mental health.

In this episode, we discuss how modern lighting has distanced us from natural light cycles, the science behind circadian rhythms, and the role of innovative lighting solutions like BIOS’ SkyView in bringing the benefits of natural daylight indoors. Learn why traditional lighting may be disrupting your sleep, what to avoid in your home and workplace, and what the future holds for intelligent lighting systems that adapt to human biology.

Tune in for an enlightening conversation on why lighting isn’t just about visibility—it’s about optimizing health and performance.
