Dementia: The paper discusses the impact of neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's on the circadian system and light input pathway.
Alzheimer's disease: The paper discusses the degeneration of intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs) in Alzheimer's patients and its potential contribution to circadian dysfunction.
Cognitive function and memory: The paper discusses the role of the circadian system and light input pathway in cognitive function, which can be impacted by neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's and Huntington's.
Aging: The paper discusses age-related changes in the circadian system and light input pathway, including in the context of neurodegenerative diseases.
Psychiatric Disorders: The paper discusses the impact of neurodevelopmental disorders like Fragile X Syndrome on the circadian system and light input pathway.
