Cognitive functions and underlying parameters of human brain physiology are associated with chronotype.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined how cortical excitability, neuroplasticity, and cognition are associated with chronotype in early and late chronotype individuals, and found that motor learning and cognitive performance (working memory, and attention) along with their electrophysiological components are significantly enhanced at the circadian preferred, compared to the non-preferred time.

Contribution of the circadian pacemaker and the sleep homeostat to sleep propensity, sleep structure, electroencephalographic slow waves, and sleep spindle activity in humans

TL;DR: Analyses of the (nonadditive) interaction of the circadian and sleep-dependent components of sleep propensity and sleep structure revealed that the phase relation between the sleep-wake cycle and the circadian pacemaker during entrainment promotes the consolidation of sleep and wakefulness and facilitates the transitions between these vigilance states.

Real-time tracking of self-reported symptoms to predict potential COVID-19.

TL;DR: Analysis of data from a smartphone-based app designed for large-scale tracking of potential COVID-19 symptoms, used by over 2.5 million participants in the United Kingdom and United States, shows that loss of taste and smell sensations is predictive of potential SARS-CoV-2 infection.
