Findings reveal possible role for peripheral organs in substance use disorders

Body parts respond to day and night independently from brain, studies show

First-ever ‘atlas’ of circadian metabolism shows how disruptions may lead to disease

Physiology & biophysics professor Todd Holmes has received a five-year, $2.1 million Maximizing Investigators’ Research Award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences to study how insects process short-wavelength light in the ultraviolet-through-blue spectral range. This work builds on research from the Holmes lab published over the past few years in Science, Nature and […]
