Reihe: Neuromethods

This volume provides backgrounds, methods, and troubleshooting for the analysis of circadian rhythms at the molecular, cellular, and organismal levels in vertebrates and invertebrates, and also covers light input, sleep, circalunar rhythms, and seasonal rhythms. The chapters in this book discuss behavioral and biological testing, histochemistry, single-cell imaging, electrophysiology, photochemistry, genetics, genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, systems biology, chemical biology, and mathematical modeling. In the Neuromethods series style, chapters include experimental detail and key advice from the specialists needed to successfully carry out these methods in your laboratory.  Cutting-edge and practical, Circadian Clocks is a valuable resource for all researchers seeking to learn about established and novel methods in chronobiology, and the molecular mechanisms of the rhythmic control of physiology and behavior.
