Bioinformatics Omic Platform for Circadian Biomedical Research
Circadian rhythms are fundamental for understanding biology: they date to the origin of life, are found in virtually every species from cyanobacteria to mammals, and coordinate many important biological functions from the sleep-wake cycle, to metabolism, to cognitive functions. Circadian rhythms are equally fundamental for health and medicine: diet modifications have been linked to molecular-level changes in circadian rhythms; disruptions of circadian rhythms have been linked to health problems ranging from depression to learning disorders to diabetes, to obesity, to cardiovascular disease, to cancer, and to premature aging; finally, a large fraction of drug targets have been found to…
