Our internal clock controls far more than just our sleep. It influences numerous biological processes that change throughout the day. A new study from October 2026 shows that the daily rhythms of light exposure and wrist temperature are also linked to markers of metabolic health. A particularly intriguing question is whether wearable sensors will help […]Our internal clock controls far more than just our sleep.

Do Spiders Dream? What Their Sleep Phases Might Reveal About Humans
They hunt skillfully, respond to their surroundings, and appear to enter a state at night that bears striking similarities to our sleep. Researchers have observed two distinct sleep phases in an Australian jumping spider—including a phase with rapid eye movements and muscle twitches reminiscent of human REM sleep. Whether the animals actually dream remains an […]They hunt skillfully, respond to their surroundings, and appear to enter a state at night that bears striking similarities to our sleep.

Alzheimer’s Research: How Overactive Immune Cells Rob Us of Sleep – And Why the Problem May Be Reversible
U.S. researchers were able to restore more than two hours of sleep per day in mice with Alzheimer’s-like changes. To do so, they did not need to remove the typical protein deposits in the brain or reduce their quantity. Instead, the intervention targeted overactive immune cells. The discovery could open up a new approach to […]U.S. researchers were able to restore more than two hours of sleep per day in mice with Alzheimer’s-like changes.

Stress Resilience Starts in Everyday Life: How Sleep, Diet, and Our Internal Clock Influence Our Mental Flexibility
Why are some people able to keep a clear head even in difficult situations, while others lose their balance more quickly? In addition to personal experiences and psychological strategies, everyday habits may also play a role. A study by Binghamton University shows links between diet, exercise, sleep, and the ability to cope with stress. Chronobiology […]Why are some people able to keep a clear head even in difficult situations, while others lose their balance more quickly?
