LIGHT STUDIES & OUR RESEARCH SERVICES

RESEARCH

Conducting Your Own Studies

 Beyond supplying lido devices for rental to other research institutes, we also offer full-service study execution. Whether your goal is promotion of healthy lighting at workplaces or prevention of circadian disruption in clinical settings, we can help.

 

Our Research Framework 

  • Study Design
    We work with you to define clear objectives based on your research question, from epidemiology of dementia to workplace well-being.
  • Selection of Suitable Logger
    We customize solutions that balance cost and accuracy, ensuring the best fit for your budget and scientific needs.
  • Study Implementation
    We provide guidance on how participants should wear and handle the lido wearable. Our team offers onsite or remote support, aligning instructions with your protocol.
  • Data Analysis & Interpretation
    We examine collected data for patterns in light-exposure, correlate it with chronotype, and integrate external data sources (e.g., local weather, sun position, or temperature).
  • Comparative Insights
    We leverage our repository of historical light data from multiple studies to benchmark your results, providing deeper context and  conclusions.
