In mammals, even when there is high REM sleep pressure, it is opposed by any high activity in the locus coeruleus - a location of noradrenergic flow (Osorio-Forero 2025).

"It isn't being a night owl that's a problem," Dr. Kristen Knutson of @NUFeinbergMed said. "I think being a night owl who's trying to live in a morning lark's world is a conflict between one's internal clock and their social clock." #chronotype #nightowl 🦉abcnews.go.com/Health/night-…

This is absolutely mind-bending. By locking the camera to a fixed point in the sky rather than the ground, this stunning timelapse perfectly visualizes Earth's rotation.🌍🌌
It really puts our movement through space into perspective.

There needs to be more discussion around circadian (neurological and genetic) vs non-circadian (behavioral and environmental) delayed sleep-wake phase disorder. This requires healthcare providers to know the difference + access to genetic and DLMO testing.

Nov. 24 is Non-24 Awareness Day! It's a neurological sleep disorder in which a person's sleep/wake cycle is longer than 24 hours. The person is unable to adjust their sleep/wake cycle to the length of the day, and their sleep time progresses around the clock. #circadian #non24

TEXANS: Have you asked Governor Abbott to veto HB 1393 yet? Permanent DST cannot lock the clock quickly or safely, only permanent Standard Time can. Leave a message at 512-463-1782, or click the link in our reply below. TELL THE GOVERNOR TO VETO HB 1393!

Check out the Circadian Sleep Disorders Network @CSD_N for more information and consider genetic and DLMO testing if it is accessible to you.

NEW STUDY: Results “challenge the notion that evening chronotype is a risk factor for psychiatric disorders per se, suggesting instead that evening types are at a greater risk for psychiatric disorders due to circadian misalignment"🦉⏰ @anguscburns @circadian247 @jlane_boston @FIMM_UH medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
