The BioClocks UK network exists to build bridges bridges between chronobiology research and real-world impact. But what exactly does that mean? Find out more here!

Satellites could disrupt #circadian rhythms globally. Major projects such as #ReflectOrbital and #SpaceX are pushing boundaries, and now is the time to recognise the effect these projects could have on life everywhere. bioclocks.uk/news

Share your #chronobiology research at the upcoming Clock Club in Nottingham on the 9th of January 2026. Only a few more days until the 14th Nov abstract submission deadline!
Send your abstract here: forms.office.com/e/cQDefteB7…
Find out what the UK #chronobiology community has been up to and how we're working to bring science out of the lab in our newsletter: heyzine.com/flip-book/a33b07…
Around the equinox, we see an increased interest in how biological rhythms are affected by light. UK #Chronobiology academics have been communicating the research on this for over a decade now - see this timeless podcast episode on rhythms: bbc.co.uk/programmes/b06rzd4…

As the day shortens you might see a change in the behaviour of the little visitors in your garden and local parks. What do you notice?
Nocturnal activity is the result of internal biological rhythms!

What makes you tick?
We talk about #circadian rhythms like we already know what's going on, but there's still so much to learn about this fundamental process!

☀️ Summer is a great time to observe biological rhythms in action. Look at the insect life around you - do they come out at a particular time of day?
🐝 If so, you've found their 'temporal niche'!

Many thanks to @RTEBrainstorm for highlighting this cool study about timing of light exposure and sleep @RCSI_Irl @BioClocksUK
Can early morning natural light improve your sleep that night? Insights from @curtisclocklab @RCSI_Irl @Researchirel via @drivetimerte @RTERadio1 rte.ie/brainstorm/2025/0807/…
Need some #chronobiology expertise but not sure where to start?
Academic leaders in #circadian rhythms, #sleep, #plant chronobiology, #seasonality, #neuroscience and more can now be reached through our BioClocks UK expert directory.

#SciComm
You probably know that humans have #circadian rhythms, but did you know plants do too? Now is a great time to go out and witness clocks in nature!

#SciComm #Ecology 🧪
Multiple new roles in Circadian Biology and Medicine open in Germany!
Applications closing 8th August 2025.

🧠💤 Have you published or read a great article on sleep, circadian rhythms, and dementia?
We’d love to share it! Submit it via this link: forms.cloud.microsoft/r/4GVy… and we’ll feature it on our socials and in our next newsletter!🔁📢 #SleepResearch #Dementia #CircadianRhythms
What should you do if you #Travel across multiple time-zones? It depends, so here's an example!
