What happens to sleep when the sun never sets-or never rises? Join us for a science talk on sleep and circadian rhythms in Alaska, where extreme daylight, long winters, and northern lifestyles challenge the human biological clock. Learn how light, physiology, and behavior interact at the higher latitudes.
