Building on previous research
In 2024, VoPham and her co-investigator Weaver published work on a newly developed (and validated) geospatial light exposure model that calculates solar jet lag scores. Higher scores indicate a higher “environmental circadian misalignment” or higher likelihood of exposure to solar jet lag.
This new geospatial model is currently being used to investigate the association between solar jet lag and sleep health in a recently funded National Institutes of Health R21 grant co-led by VoPham and Weaver.
Now, they’ll pair their improved high-resolution geospatial light exposure model for solar jet lag with electronic health records from the Veterans Health Administration, the largest integrated health care system in the United States.
“We will examine…
