Circadian Photoentrainment in Mammals
Description: PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Specialized groups of light sensitive neurons in the retina play an indispensable role in adapting our activity, sleep, and hormone levels to the ambient light-dark cycle. This application will elucidate the cellular circuitry by which these light sensitive neurons exert their effect on broad brain regions.
