We have measured the period of plasma melatonin, plasma cortisol, and core body temperature rhythms under controlled conditions of a forced desynchrony (FD) protocol to estimate intrinsic circadian period immediately following release from entrainment to each of these two day lengths [13].
Additional comment: There is only so much you can learn in two days (the length of Software Carpentry's current workshops), and whatever you learn in that time is unlikely by itself to change your research practices dramatically.
In that study, daily interruption of sedatives was associated with a prolonged duration of mechanical ventilation (almost three days), ICU length of stay (seven days), and length of hospital stay (eleven days) [23].

Along the lines of previously applied methods, 6 we adjusted the gestational age of each stillborn fetus by deducting two days from the length of pregnancy at delivery, to correct for the estimated 48 hour average delay between intrauterine death and delivery.
Every two days, increase the length by a quarter of a mile.
Of the festivals, Christmas is considered to be twelve days in length (from December 25 until January 5) and Easter is fifty days in length (from Easter Sunday up to and inclusive of Pentecost).
The length of stay of study participants ranged from one to 98 days (median five days); median length of stay was slightly longer in the intervention than the usual care group (six days v five days; P=0.05, Mann-Whitney U test).
Mr. Bush's trip to Pennsylvania was his second in two days, underscoring the lengths to which he has gone to try to wrest the state from the Democratic column.
