Chronobiology: A Breakthrough Science Chronobiology studies the internal clocks we each have and need to regulate important processes such as cell division, skin proliferation and melatonin production, to name a few. To begin appreciating chronobiology, think of your own basic rhythms. The time of day optimal to study a new subject, for instance, may be upon awakening […]
Cronobiología: Una ciencia revolucionaria La cronobiología estudia los relojes internos que cada uno de nosotros tiene y necesita para regular procesos importantes como la división celular, la proliferación de la piel y la producción de melatonina, por nombrar algunos. Para empezar a apreciar la cronobiología, piense en sus propios ritmos básicos. El momento del día […]
The Circadian Rhythm and Sleep Our bodies are run by a circadian rhythm, an internal clock consisting of 24-hour cycles. This intuitive mechanism governs a variety of processes from sleep to the body’s metabolism. It is affected by environmental elements, such as sunlight and temperature. Scientists have also been studying the effects of the moon on […]
El ritmo circadiano y el sueño Nuestro cuerpo se rige por un ritmo circadiano, un reloj interno que consta de ciclos de 24 horas. Este mecanismo intuitivo rige diversos procesos, desde el sueño hasta el metabolismo corporal. Se ve afectado por elementos ambientales, como la luz solar y la temperatura. Los científicos también han estudiado […]
Chronobiology refers to the process by which organisms time their behavior and physiology so that everything behaves rhythmically. In other words, it is biological timing. It is the rhythms of life; the internal clocks that control when you wake up, eat, digest your food and perform nearly every function that an organism is to perform. […]
