Certificate of Advanced Studies (CAS) in Light and Chronobiology

The CAS Light and Chronobiology integrates topics covering the biological effects of daylight from various fields such as architecture, chronobiology, lighting design, medicine and psychology. This opens up theoretical and, above all, practical applications for improving public health.

The Integrative Human Circadian Daylight Platform (iHCDP) is a project led by four researchers at the Centre for Chronobiology at University of Basel/University Psychiatric Clinics Basel, Max Planck Institute Tübingen and Technical University Munich. The platform aims to catalyse any means necessary for the use of (day-)light to improve general health, quality of life and living conditions across the life span, based on biological, psychological and societal needs. 

To bring together researchers, clinicians, light designers, architects, and educators in the fields of daylight research, ophthalmology and vision science, and sleep- and circadian medicine the team established a Certificate of Advanced Studies (CAS) in Light and Chronobiology associated with University of Basel.

The CAS Light and Chronobiology integrates topics covering the biological effects of daylight from various fields such as architecture, chronobiology, lighting design, medicine and psychology. This opens up theoretical and, above all, practical applications for improving public health. Attached you find a flyer. We'd be glad if you could share it with everyone who might be interested in this course. Registration is open until 31 July
