Protecting Your Eyes from Technology with Daniel Georgiev

Daniel, 22, developed this program after experiencing eye damage at a young age due to excessive amounts of programming. Think of Iris as Flux or Night Shift on steroids.

Iris has really revolutionized my relationship with the computer in terms of my day to day work. I am able to work longer, more effectively, and know that my eyes are not getting damaged.

So you go from something that is acute immediately to something that’s stressful over a long period of time and it’s sort of like a constant issue that you deal with throughout your flying career. This is what I term as jet stress because it’s a stress on the body, it’s continual, and it has a pattern to it that if not dealt with will lead to a breakdown in health, and affect other areas of people’s lives.My guest today is Christopher Babayode. Chris is the author of a book that I enjoy quite a bit - it’s called Farewell Jet Lag: Cures from a Flight Attendant.

Investing in Sleep with Dr. Benjamin Smarr
04/01/2018 Duration: 47min“Your body is a network, when that network is disturbed it might not be able to tell exactly which node in the network is gonna go first. But I can definitely tell you that you’re at risk of breaking your network much more than somebody who is letting it line up nicely.” Right before presenting on sleep genetics at the 2017 Quantified Self Conference in Amsterdam, I met Dr. Benjamin Smarr. We exchanged words and Dr. Smarr mentioned he studied sleep at the University of California at Berkeley. It was a bit nerve wracking to have a circadian biologist in the front row. Dr. Benjamin Smarr studies the temporal structures that biological systems make as they move through time. An NIH research fellow at UC Berkeley, his work focuses on understanding how physiological dynamics like sleep, circadian rhythms, and ovulatory cycles are shaped by the brain, and how disturbances to those cycles give rise to disease. Dr. Smarr is also an advocate for scientific outreach, and routinely gives public lectures and vi
