Research
Interests
Our
laboratory is interested in the neural and endocrine control of circadian
and seasonal rhythms in mammals. A lot of our attention is devoted to
the neural circuits that connect the circadian clock of the suprachiasmatic
nucleus to other regions of the brain that regulate sleep and reproductive
functions. In collaboration with the laboratory of Dr.
Laura Smale, we are investigating the functional anatomy of these
circuits in diurnal and nocturnal species.
