What if light could do more than help us see? In this second episode, Dr. Anne Berends talks with Professor Elke Bushbeck about how sunlight affects every living organism — from the eyes of insects to the energy in our own cells.
They explore how different wavelengths of light — UV, blue, red, and near-infrared — influence our biology, mood, and even brain function. You’ll learn why insects see the world differently, how natural light supports vision and energy production, and what happens when we spend most of our lives indoors under artificial light.
