Lights on for the nervous system: exploring the effects of photobiomodulation - Part A, Volume 187 in the International Review of Neurobiology series, highlights new advances in understanding how light interacts with the human body and brain. This comprehensive volume presents chapters written by an international board of authors, covering the history and theory of therapeutic light use, the underlying mechanisms of light–cell interactions, and the systemic effects of light exposure. It explores cognitive enhancement, sleep regulation, and microbiome modulation, as well as the potential of light-based interventions for neurodegenerative disorders, chronic pain, traumatic brain injury, depression, and retinal diseases. Together, these chapters provide a detailed overview of the biological and clinical impact of light on health and disease.
