Abstract:
The central pacemaker of circadian behavior in mammals is located in the suprachiasmatic nuclei, each neuron of which has its own circadian rhythm. Recent studies shed light on the integration of these individual cellular rhythms and on novel genetic determinants that have been found to influence circadian behavior.
