New research has uncovered how a simple circadian clock network demonstrates advanced noise-filtering capabilities, enhancing our understanding of how biological circuits maintain accuracy in dynamic ...

Melanopsin, a blue photoreceptor in retinal cells, receives blue light each morning and transmits the signal via the nerves of the eye to the SCN, the circadian rhythm central pacemaker. The photo ...

Researchers from the Institute for Molecular Science (IMS)/SOKENDAI and Kyushu University have uncovered the molecular mechanism that drives the "ticking" of the circadian clock in cyanobacteria.

The body's internal clock doesn't just dictate when we sleep -- it also determines how quickly our muscles heal. A new study in mice suggests that muscle injuries heal faster when they occur during ...

As anticipation builds for the longer days that follow this weekend’s switch to daylight savings time, the moment seemed ideal to turn to one of the nation’s leading circadian-rhythms researchers, UC ...

The body's internal clock doesn't just dictate when we sleep - it also determines how quickly our muscles heal. A new Northwestern Medicine study in mice, published today in Science Advances, suggests ...

For years, I was an inveterate early morning exerciser — the kind of person you'd spot trudging into the gym just after the doors were unlocked or running through the neighborhood when the coffee ...
