"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-o…

@BobWeir Come wash the nighttime clean

It is with profound sadness that we share the passing of Bobby Weir. We send him off the way he sent so many of us on our way: with a farewell that isn’t an ending, but a blessing.  A reward for a life worth livin'. bobweir.net/bobby/ 📸 Chloe Weir

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.

@BrandonLuuMD Please keep in mind that some “biological night owls” have the neurological condition: Delayed Sleep Wake Phase Disorder. Most do not find light therapy to be very helpful: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38229915/

Can’t fall asleep before 2 AM. Hit snooze five times. Wide awake at midnight. This is likely a delayed circadian rhythm. Morning light helps, but only if the timing, intensity, and delivery are right. Get it wrong and you delay your clock further. Here’s what to do🧵1/13

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

@JustinEchterna9 Yes it would be 🦉

It would be interesting to see this with a depiction of the earth's magnetic field overlaid to see if there is any correlation ... based on magnetoreception ...

@elonmusk Yes

Are you awake now?

Honored to be representing Delayed Sleep Phase Disorder patients on the @NIH SDRAB. The next meeting is August 7 & 8 - published in the Federal Register (FR. Doc. 2025 - 10538). #DSPD #circadian #advocacy nhlbi.nih.gov/events/2025/ni…

"Sleep difficulties are highly prevalent in children with autism spectrum disorder, affecting up to 80%." #DSDP #circadian #autism pnas.org/doi/full/10.10…

What a wonderful #SLEEP2025! We were truly inspired by the interest in misaligned body clocks and circadian rhythm disorders this year! #DSPD #non24 #nightowl #patient #Advocacy

🧠 Join Dr. Angus C. Burns on July 15 at 1 PM CT for an SRS Virtual Seminar on sleep inertia as a biomarker of circadian misalignment and its link to psychiatric disorders. 🔗 ow.ly/VJNz50Wn938

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!

.@HankGreen shares his experience w/ DSPD in this #vlogbrothers video. He discusses social model of #disability & DSM-5 definition of disorder: “Significant distress or impairment in social, occupational or other important areas of functioning.” #circadian youtu.be/JcwO11MQ5Uo?si…

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

🕒Nov 24 is Non-24 Awareness Day! #Non24 Day aims to help raise awareness of #Non24HourSleepWakeDisorder, a serious #circadian sleep disorder in which a person's sleep/wake cycle is longer than 24 hours. Share to help raise awareness! Learn more at @CSD_N: circadiansleepdisorders.org

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/10.110…

@CSD_N @anguscburns @circadian247 @jlane_boston Interesting. Thanks for not using the word "preference"
