🌅 Within you, billions of molecular clocks tick in coordinated patterns. From 90-minute sleep cycles to seasonal patterns in gene activity, your body orchestrates time across every scale.

Did you know your liver, heart, and skin each have their own circadian timing? ⚙️

This is the first newspaper article I have ever seen that actually cites an R package. 🙂

(Congratulations to the 'suntools' package.)

Mapping how ending Daylight Saving Time would change time in the U.S.

Would you be okay if the sun rose before 4 a.m., or after 10? Not changing clocks is a popular idea, but we’d have to live with the extremes.

Circadian rhythms are more than just sleep cycles – they’re survival tools.

From penguins to honeybees, discover how these biological clocks shape life on Earth.
