Effects of simulated night shift work on circadian rhythmicity of body temperature

As a visiting Erasmus master student from the University of Groningen, Josien Janssen was doing a research internship at the Bergen Stress and Sleep Group (BSSG). In her project she used a model for simulated night shift work to look at the effects on body temperature using the programming language R. The aim of the research was to gain more knowledge about how shift work influences circadian rhythmicity of body temperature.

This project is a part of the project: Consequences of night shift simulation on waking performance, sleep, circadian rhythmicity and brain function.
