MyNighttime Editorial Team

Every article on MyNighttime is written and maintained by our editorial team โ€” people who research night shift health, chronobiology, and shift work practicalities so you don't have to piece it together from forums and outdated blog posts.

How We Work

We're not shift work researchers ourselves โ€” we're editors and writers who read the published research (occupational health guidance, sleep science, and peer-reviewed studies on circadian rhythm and shift work) and translate it into practical, actionable guidance for people actually living on a night schedule. Where a claim is based on a specific source, we link to it directly rather than asking you to take our word for it.

We also draw on the lived experience of night shift workers and night owls โ€” the community MyNighttime exists to serve โ€” to make sure the advice we publish actually reflects what it's like to sleep during the day, date on an inverted schedule, or negotiate shift differential pay.

Our Editorial Standards

Full detail is in our editorial policy, but in short:

  • Health and safety claims are checked against occupational health authorities (such as NIOSH) and established sleep-medicine sources (such as the Sleep Foundation and AASM) where applicable
  • Articles are dated, and we note when a page has been meaningfully revised
  • We correct errors when they're found โ€” if you spot one, let us know
