Biological processes that repeat themselves every 24 hours within a biological system are called circadian rhythms. The circadian clock affects the operation of practically all functions in the body. Now in its third edition, this book presents the latest information on recent research and clinical developments. This edition discusses anatomical and physiological characterization of photoresponsive ganglionic cells in the mammalian retina. It addresses molecular circadian clocks in cells of multiple organs other than the hypothalamus and the pineal gland. It also explores advances in post-translational mechanisms in the operation of the molecular clock.
Roberto Refinetti, PhD, is a physiological psychology professor, circadian physiology researcher, and chair of the department of psychology at Boise State University in Idaho, USA. He is also a member of the graduate faculty of the University of Messina (Italy) and was formerly associated with the University of South Carolina, the University of Virginia, the University of Illinois, the University of Sao Paulo (Brazil), and the University of California at Santa Barbara, where he earned his doctorate. His research program in circadian physiology, which concentrates on the integration of circadian and homeostatic mechanisms, has been funded by the U.S. National Science Foundation and the National Institutes of Health. Professor Refinetti is editor-in-chief of the Journal of Circadian Rhythms and of the interdisciplinary journalSexuality & Culture.
