Thank you Professor! That's a great recommendation! I will read it for sure. I think it's impossible to say that we've done everything, since we don't know everything. A succession of events is exactly how I think #chronobiology these days. Time is an intriguing #mystery.

500 days in a cave.
Did you know that pioneers of #chronobiology used cave isolation like this to document human #circadian rhythms? How would you deal with the lack of external time?

More non-circadian #chronobiology for science Sunday: how do lunar cycles guide the spawning of corals? And is there a self sustaining clock that controls this?

We report that a nuclear-encoded sigma factor combines #circadian and low temperature signals. It helps photosynthesis during long-term cold. Kudos to first authors @Dodka_ @PanterPaige and everyone involved #plants #chronobiology @NaturePlants https://www.nature.com/articles/s41477-023-01377-1

If you're near to Lausanne, do check out a new art and science exhibition on #chronobiology, 'Lighten Up! On Biology and Time' by @EPFLPavilions which opens March 24th.

I love seeing this kind of depiction of #chronobiology. It's so clear, so visual how our human lives follow a rhythm, but one that is unique to each individual.

Continuing the #plantclock theme, this new review considers the impact of domestication on the plant clock. Can we improve the nutritional value of food through a greater understanding of #chronobiology? See more here by Siqueira et al @shogur:

Circadian biology is the subject of this beautiful art piece by @LauraBundesen.

Are there other #chronobiology artists out there? Get in touch, we'd love to showcase your work.

This article in The Guardian links together time keeping and the climate crisis.

https://www.theguardian.com/news/2023/feb/02/could-putting-clock-forward-help-tackle-climate-crisis

But the authors of the study might want to also take into account the impacts on human health from living in time zones that differ widely from solar time (including higher traffic fatalities), as a recent paper in our Journal shows:
