4th Dutch Chronobiology Symposium

Join us at the Kamerlingh Onnes Gebouw in Leiden on March 27, 2026 at 9:00 AM for a day filled with exciting discussions and presentations on chronobiology. Whether you're a seasoned researcher or just curious about the field, this event is the perfect opportunity to learn, network, and exchange ideas with experts on circadian biology and biological rhythms in Society, Care, Nature and Biodiversity.

This full day symposium will be filled with a variety of presentations, covering the wide spectrum of chronobiology in nightshifts, therapies and responses in humans, animals, fish, insects, plants, etc. With this program we aim to offer a wide spectrum of all the chronobiology work that is done in the Netherlands and inspire others to advance chronobiology research and implementation of research results in society.
