Long in preparation, now finally preprinted! In naturalistic conditions, we examined pupil size variation across age (range 18-87 years) and real-world scenarios. 👀 Read here: doi.org/10.1101/2023.10.16.5… Very grateful for the hands-on supervision @mspitschan 🙏

The chronobiology and sleep fields have lost a wonderful colleague and friend to many. Steve Brown died from injuries sustained in an accident on Wednesday. Our thoughts are with his family, friends, lab and colleagues. RIP.
