Chronobiology and metabolic syndrome : from genes to systems biology
(Springer, 2013)
The major function of the circadian system is the internal cycling of physiologic and metabolic events. In the last years, there has been an exponential increase in our understanding of the role of clock-related genes in ...
Psychological adaptation to extreme environments: Antarctica as a space analogue
(Juniper Publishers, 2018-07)
Space analogues are settings where particular conditions can be reproduced to study physiological and psychological variables experienced in space. Antarctica is one of the most reliable analogues to assess the effects of ...
Women temporarily synchronize their menstrual cycles with the luminance and gravimetric cycles of the Moon
(Science Advances is the American Association for the Advancement of Science, 2021-01-27)
Many species synchronize reproductive behavior with a particular phase of the lunar cycle to increase reproductive success. In humans, a lunar influence on reproductive behavior remains controversial, although the human ...
Spanish translation of the mood rhythm instrument: a novel approach to mood evaluation
(HCPA/FAMED/UFRGS, 2017)
White Adipose Tissue and Circadian Rhythm Dysfunctions in Obesity: Pathogenesis and Available Therapies
(Karger, 2017-04)
A combined neuroendocrine, metabolic, and chronobiological view can help to better understand the multiple and complex mechanisms involved in obesity development and maintenance, as well as to provide new effective approaches ...

Time to decide: Diurnal variations on the speed and quality of human decisions
(Elsevier B.V., 2017-01)
Human behavior and physiology exhibit diurnal fluctuations. These rhythms are entrained by light and social cues, with vast individual differences in the phase of entrainment - referred as an individual's chronotype - ...
Role of the circadian clock in the statistics of locomotor activity in Drosophila
(Public Library of Science, 2018-08)
In many animals the circadian rhythm of locomotor activity is controlled by an endogenous circadian clock. Using custom made housing and video tracking software in order to obtain high spatial and temporal resolution, we ...
Theory of inpatient circadian care (TICC): A proposal for a middle-range theory
(Bentham Science Publishers B.V., 2015-01)
The circadian system controls the daily rhythms of a variety of physiological processes. Most organisms show physiological, metabolic and behavioral rhythms that are coupled to environmental signals. In humans, the main ...
