Adolescent biology, early morning classes and too much evening screen time are a few of the key drivers behind teen sleep deprivation.
Your body follows a circadian rhythm that influences everything from how well your medications work to the best time for exercise.
Circadian clocks regulate the timing of hundreds of processes in the cell, suggesting that matching medications with your biological clock could improve the outcome
Americans Jeffrey Hall, Michael Rosbash and Michael Young share the 2017 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for work that explained how our cells keep track of time.
Whether you’re a night owl or a morning lark, circadian rhythms control just about every aspect of your health.
We’re used to thinking of our eyes detecting light as the foundation of our visual system. But what’s going on in other cells throughout the body that can detect light, too?
