Abstract：

Organisms have adapted to the potent pressures of day-night changes in our environment with daily, anticipatory changes in physiology and behavior. This talk will explore the molecular, cellular and

systems-level regulation of these biological rhythms. Using real-time monitoring of gene expression, neural activity, glial activity and locomotor activity, we are beginning to understand the mechanisms that drive circadian rhythms in the brain and body and how our daily schedules can disrupt these reliable changes in metabolism, gene expression, hormone levels and behavior.
