Interventions
SHIFT is a mobile application designed to improve sleep in night shift workers. The SHIFT mobile application is used to collect data from an Apple Watch to assess an individual shift worker's body-clock timing and make personalized recommendations of light exposure schedules that are designed to align the body-clock with the night shift work schedule.
