This paper introduces a slow-fast model of affective dynamics to study how circadian rhythms and perturbations influence transitions between physiological and pathological mood states in bipolar disorder.

This study shows that chronotype skew arises from stochastic sleep homeostasis interacting with circadian rhythms, not directly from circadian period distribution.

This study examines how sex and age affect circadian and infradian rhythms in mice, finding sex- and age-specific differences in activity patterns and physiological responses to isolation.

The paper identifies the embryonic choroid plexus as the earliest circadian oscillator in the mammalian brain, showing bifurcation dynamics that couple to maternal rhythms.

This study identifies autonomous circadian timekeeping mechanisms in the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) of the thalamus, showing intrinsic clock gene expression and light-entrainable oscillations in specific subregions.

The paper investigates daily orexinergic modulation of the rat superior colliculus, showing circadian coordination between orexin input and visual system activity.

The paper shows that weak coupling between feedback loops in circadian clocks leads to dissociated gene expression dynamics at the single-cell level.
