Disruptions to our circadian clocks—the internal molecular timekeepers "ticking" in nearly every cell of our body throughout ...
Circadian clocks ensure that we modulate our physiological behaviors, like sleeping and eating, in a rhythmic, 24-hour cycle. They are present in all living cells, from cyanobacteria to humans. The ...
