Abstract

Beyond visual function, specialized light-sensitive retinal circuits involving the photopigment melanopsin drive critical aspects of human physiology and behavior, including sleep–wake rhythms, hormone production, mood, and cognition. Fundamental discoveries of visual neurobiology dating back to the 1990s have given rise to strong interest from the lighting industry in optimizing lighting to benefit health. Consequently, evidence-based recommendations, regulations, and policies need to translate current knowledge of neurobiology into practice. Here, reviewing recent advances in understanding of NIF circuits in humans leads to proposed strategies to optimize electric lighting. Highlighted knowledge gaps must be addressed urgently, as well as the challenge of developing personalized, adaptive NIF lighting interventions accounting for complex individual differences in physiology, behavior, and environment. Finally, lighting equity issues appear in the context of marginalized groups, who have traditionally been underserved in research on both fundamental visual processes and applied lighting. Biologically optimal light is a fundamental environmental right.

黑色素时代以人为中心的照明研究与政策
除了视觉功能,包括光色素黑视素在内的特殊光敏视网膜回路驱动着人类生理和行为的关键方面,包括睡眠-觉醒节律、激素产生、情绪和认知。视觉神经生物学的基本发现可以追溯到20世纪90年代,这引起了照明行业对优化照明以造福健康的强烈兴趣。因此,基于证据的建议、法规和政策需要将当前的神经生物学知识转化为实践。在这里,回顾了人类NIF电路理解的最新进展,提出了优化电照明的策略。突出的知识差距必须迫切解决,以及开发个性化,适应性NIF照明干预措施的挑战,考虑到生理,行为和环境的复杂个体差异。最后,照明公平问题出现在边缘群体的背景下,他们传统上在基本视觉过程和应用照明的研究中都得不到充分的服务。生物最佳光照是一项基本的环境权利。
