Mapping the Human Chronobiome: Opening the Door for More Effective Disease Treatments
There has been a great deal of discussion in the medical world about the importance of chronopharmacology, or the practice of timing treatments and medications so they can be more effective and have fewer side effects. However, this is not a simple task because not all humans run on the same timing. Some people are […]There has been a great deal of discussion in the medical world about the importance of chronopharmacology, or the practice of timing treatments and medications so they can be more effective and have fewer side effects.

Wound Healing: Why Time of Day Is Crucial
Almost every process in our body, including sleep, the release of hormones and metabolism, is regulated by our internal clocks. Each cell in our bodies has its own biological clock, which is synchronized by hormones, temperature and other physical signals. The entire symphony of clocks is coordinated by a single conductor, which is a master […]Almost every process in our body, including sleep, the release of hormones and metabolism, is regulated by our internal clocks.

When it comes to the concept of “daylight saving,” modern people simply accept the twice-annual change in time as a fact of life. However, like many aspects of modern life, daylight saving may have serious negative effects. For many people, the effect is similar to jet lag, a movement across different time zones. They suffer […]When it comes to the concept of "daylight saving," modern people simply accept the twice-annual change in time as a fact of life.
