Exposure to Light at Night May Cause Depression, Learning Issues, JHU Biologist Says

However, according to a new study led by Johns Hopkins biologist Samer Hattar, when people routinely burn the midnight oil, they risk suffering depression and learning issues. The culprit? Exposure to bright light at night from lamps, computers and even iPads.
