What Do We Know About Circadian Rhythms? (Ft. Dr. Ceazar Nave)
Manage episode 372782201 series 3263378
In this episode of MeSearch, we meet Dr. Ceazar Nave, a post doctoral research fellow and professor of biology. Dr. Nave's area of expertise is in circadian biology, which means he studies the body's natural processes (i.e. waking, sleeping, digesting, etc.) that occur on a daily cycle. We learned that light sources, whether natural or from our computer/phone screens or lightbulbs can impact the ways in which our bodies undergo the biological processes meant to keep us functioning and well. What does all of this mean for Filipinos with irregular schedules, such as night workers or young students pulling all nighters?
Listen to this conversation as we delve into his research, its application to life as Filipinos, and what it's like being a Filipino American scientist in this day and age.
