Numerical study of entrainment of the human circadian system and recovery by light treatment
Abstract Background While the effects of light as a zeitgeber are well known, the way the effects are modulated by features of the sleep-wake system still remains to be studied in detail. Methods A mathematical model for disturbance and recovery of the human circadian system is presented. The model...
