Circadian rhythm-metabolism link discovered
UC Irvine researchers have found a molecular link between circadian rhythms - our own body clock - and metabolism. The discovery reveals new possibilities for the treatment of diabetes, obesity and other related diseases. view more (2008-07-25)
Biological Timekeeper Studies Reveal New Temperature Regulator and Track Clock Protein across a Day
Dartmouth Medical School geneticists have made new inroads into understanding the regulatory circuitry of the biological clock that synchronizes the ebb and flow of daily activities. view more (2009-05-18)
Study shows more genes are controlled by biological clocks
The tick-tock of your biological clock may have just gotten a little louder. Researchers at the University of Georgia report that the number of genes under control of in living things than suspected only a few years ago. view more (2008-08-29)
Genetic pathway responsible for link between body clock disturbance and worsening arthritis
The genes that regulate human circadian rhythm, or 'the body clock', are significantly disturbed in individuals with arthritis. view more (2009-06-11)
Researchers publish first working model that explains how biological clocks work
Science has known for decades that biological clocks govern the behavior of everything from humans to lowly bread mold. These ticking timekeepers hold the key to many diseases, annoy passengers on intercontinental flights and can mean life or death for small creatures trying to survive in nature. view more (2007-02-13)
OHSU primate center research suggests multiple 'body clocks'
Research conducted at Oregon Health & Science University suggests that contrary to popular belief, the body has more than one "body clock." view more (2006-05-23)
Racing against the clock to distribute H1N1 flu vaccine
Drug companies are sprinting ahead in a race against the clock to deliver millions of doses of vaccine for the H1N1 influenza virus before cooler weather ushers in the 2009-2010 flu season. view more (2009-10-01)
Mood Lighting: Penn Researchers Determine Role of Serotonin in Modulating Circadian Rhythm
Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine have determined how serotonin decreases the body's sensitivity to light and that exposure to constant darkness leads to a decrease in serotonin levels in the brain of fruit flies. view more (2005-07-11)
Pain and stiffness intensity ebb and flow according to body clock in osteoarthritic patients
Levels of pain intensity and arthritic stiffness closely follow the rhythms of the body clock, reveals research in the Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases. view more (2002-11-12)
New JILA technique reveals hidden properties of ultracold atomic gases
Physicists at JILA, a joint institute of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the University of Colorado at Boulder, have demonstrated a powerful new technique that reveals hidden properties of ultracold atomic gases. view more (2008-08-07)
Study led by Scripps Research scientist reveals little-known cell networks vital to circadian rhythm
Circadian rhythm is the basic 24-hour cycle that involves various behaviors, including sleeping and eating, in all living organisms. In mammals, the circadian clock is organized hierarchically in a series of multiple oscillators. view more (2007-05-04)
NYU dental professor discovers biological clock
Why do rats live faster and die younger than humans? A newly discovered biological clock provides tantalizing clues. view more (2008-04-07)
Protein shown to rally biological clock
A biologist at Washington University in St. Louis and his collaborators have identified the factor in mammalian brain cells that keeps cells in synchrony so that functions like the wake-sleep cycle, hormone secretion and loco motor behaviors are coordinated daily over a 24-hour period. view more (2006-11-30)
Study identifies food-related clock in the brain
In investigating the intricacies of the body's biological rhythms, scientists at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC) have discovered the existence of a "food-related clock" which can supersede the "light-based" master clock that serves as the body's primary timekeeper. view more (2008-05-23)
'Suction climbing' and Vertical Cycling at TU Delft
Invitation to the final of the design contest at Mechanical Engineering 'Suction climbing' and Vertical Cycling at TU Delft Students that climb along walls and ceilings like geckos, or that ride a bike up a cable. This can be seen at TU Delft on 7 June 2002, during the annual design contest at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering. "At this... view more... (2002-06-04)
Molecular 'clock' could predict risk for developing breast cancer
A chemical reaction in genes that control breast cancer provides a molecular clock that could one day help researchers more accurately determine a woman's risk for developing breast cancer and provide a new approach for treatment, UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers have found. view more (2008-05-14)
Movement of atoms viewed at 100 times higher than previous resolution
A paper published in Nature, by scientists at the Universities of Sheffield and Warwick and the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility, describes how experts have used X-rays to see structures in unprecedented detail at the atomic scale. The technique is 100 times more sensitive than any other method, and has the potential to allow scientists to... view more... (2005-05-04)
Mouse vision has a rhythm all its own
In the eyes of mammals, visual information is processed on a daily schedule set within the eyes themselves-not one dictated by the brain, according to a new report in the August 24 issue of the journal Cell, a publication of Cell Press. view more (2007-08-24)
U-M discovery about biological clocks overturns long-held theory
University of Michigan mathematicians and their British colleagues say they have identified the signal that the brain sends to the rest of the body to control biological rhythms, a finding that overturns a long-held theory about our internal clock. view more (2009-10-09)
Measurements may help show if constants are changing
Physicists at JILA have performed the first-ever precision measurements using ultracold molecules, in work that may help solve a long-standing scientific mystery-whether so-called constants of nature have changed since the dawn of the universe. view more (2006-05-01)
