Effects of different light sources on neural activity of the paraventricular nucleus in the hypothalamus
Summary:
This paper discusses the effects of different light sources on neural activity in the hypothalamus, specifically the paraventricular nucleus (PVN), which acts as a stress center.
Categories
- Lighting Design Considerations: The paper discusses the effects of different light sources (OLED, LED, and fluorescent) and color temperatures on neural activity in the PVN region of the brain.
- Stress: The paper explores how different light sources and color temperatures may affect the stress response, as the PVN region of the brain acts as a stress center.
- Cognitive function and memory: The paper indirectly discusses cognitive function by examining the effects of light on neural activity in the brain.
