Marijke C.M. Gordijn, PhD, is guest researcher at the Chronobiology group
of the University of Groningen, The Netherlands and founder/director of
Chrono@Work B.V. After finishing her Masters in Biology, she did her PhD
at the Psychiatric department of the University Medical Center in
Groningen. Her main interest is translational research in the fields of
chronobiology, sleep, light, metabolism and mood/well-being. Her goal is to
use this knowledge to prevent the negative effects of chronobiological
disruption in our 24/7 society. Marijke is president of the Society for Light
Treatment and Biological Rhythms, and co-founder of both Chronotherapy
Network Netherlands and the Good Light Group.
Prof. Christian Cajochen is heading the Centre for Chronobiology at the University of Basel. He received his PhD in natural sciences from the ETH in Zürich, Switzerland, followed by a 3-y postdoctoral stay at the Harvard Medical School in Boston, USA. His major research interests include investigative work on the influence of light on human cognition, circadian rhythms and sleep, circadian related disturbances in psychiatric disorders, and age-related changes in the circadian regulation of sleep and neurobehavioral performance. He has held a number of honours and has authored more than 150 original papers and reviews in his career.

Dr. Garbazza, MD is a psychiatrist specialized in sleep and circadian medicine and research, working at the Centre for Chronobiology of the University of Basel, Switzerland. After medical studies in Italy and Germany, he obtained a doctorate from the Competence Center of Sleep Medicine of the Charité Medical University, Berlin. After moving to Switzerland, he entered a PhD program at the University of Basel, Centre for Chronobiology, under the supervision of Prof. Christian Cajochen. Since 2012, Dr Garbazza has specialized on the management of circadian rhythm sleep-wake disorders and the chronotherapy of affective disorders, with a focus on the bright light treatment of perinatal depression.
MSc Renske Lok studied Medical Biology at the University of Groningen. After graduation, she continued as a PhD candidate at the University of Groningen, department of Chronobiology, in which she investigated effects of light on human alertness. Other topics of interests include effects of light on psychological and physical performance, thermoregulation and sleep.
