His primary scientific interests are in Circadian rhythm, Audiology, Internal medicine, Endocrinology and Wakefulness.
The concepts of his Circadian rhythm study are interwoven with issues in Melatonin and Sleep in non-human animals, Slow-wave sleep.
His research integrates issues of Electroencephalography, Alertness, Effects of sleep deprivation on cognitive performance, Developmental psychology and Sleep spindle in his study of Audiology.
His research in Internal medicine focuses on subjects like Non-rapid eye movement sleep, which are connected to Sleep deprivation, Chronotype and Polysomnography.
His study looks at the relationship between Endocrinology and fields such as Advanced sleep phase disorder, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.
His Free-running sleep study incorporates themes from Neuroscience of sleep, Dark therapy and Physiology.
His most cited work include:
- Stability, Precision, and Near-24-Hour Period of the Human Circadian Pacemaker (1196 citations)
- Contribution of the circadian pacemaker and the sleep homeostat to sleep propensity, sleep structure, electroencephalographic slow waves, and sleep spindle activity in humans (1034 citations)
- Sensitivity of the human circadian pacemaker to nocturnal light: melatonin phase resetting and suppression (820 citations)

Derk-Jan Dijk mostly deals with Circadian rhythm, Sleep in non-human animals, Neuroscience, Electroencephalography and Cognition.
He has researched Circadian rhythm in several fields, including Melatonin, Wakefulness, Effects of sleep deprivation on cognitive performance and Rhythm.
His study with Melatonin involves better knowledge in Endocrinology.
Derk-Jan Dijk has included themes like Free-running sleep and Homeostasis in his Sleep in non-human animals study.
His Electroencephalography research includes themes of Anesthesia, Speech recognition and Polysomnography.
His research investigates the connection with Slow-wave sleep and areas like Audiology which intersect with concerns in Sleep medicine, Sleep eeg and Eye movement.
