Thomas A. Wehr

Thomas A. Wehr is a neuroscientist known for his research on sleep and circadian rhythms, the internal biological clocks that regulate sleep-wake cycles. His work helps us understand how these rhythms influence sleep patterns, mental health, and overall well-being. Wehr’s studies often involve examining how the body’s internal clock interacts with environmental cues like light and darkness. His research contributes to better treatments for sleep disorders and conditions affected by circadian disruptions, such as shift work insomnia or jet lag. Overall, Wehr’s work enhances our understanding of how the body's internal timing mechanisms impact health and behavior.
