Daily cycles in virtually every aspect of our physiology are driven by biological (or circadian) clocks in our cells. A team of interdisciplinary scientists has now reconstituted the circadian clock ...

Perhaps no neurologic disorder is feared more than Alzheimer dementia. At least a few times a week, a concerned elderly man or woman comes to my office wondering whether their forgetfulness or loss of ...

A digital version of the classic clock-drawing test can accurately identify early Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology in asymptomatic patients in less than 5 minutes, new research shows. Investigators ...

What time is your body clock set on? The answer, mounting research suggests, can influence everything from your predisposition to diabetes, heart disease and depression to the optimal time for you to ...

Daily cycles in virtually every aspect of our physiology are driven by biological clocks (also called circadian clocks) in our cells. The cyclical interactions of clock proteins keep the biological ...
