We study the genetic and molecular bases of circadian rhythmicity and apply such knowledge to understand and manage human sleep and circadian abnormalities.

The outer ear is a mammalian innovation but where did it come from? In our study in @Nature, @MathiThiru95 and colleagues find that the outer ear arose from modification of an ancestral gill program first originating in marine invertebrates. nature.com/articles/s41586-0… 1/n

New research in @Nature showing mitochondria can split into two different forms resolves a longstanding mystery of how mitochondria can simultaneously provide cells with energy and essential building blocks, even when resources are limited. go.nature.com/40LeBW3

How do mitochondria, the cell’s energy-producing organelles, perform competing metabolic processes? Segregation into distinct populations — one that makes energy-storing ATP molecules and one that does not — could explain it nature.com/articles/d41586-0…

A cell videoed through a microscope. DNA in the nucleus (green) and the powerhouses/overlords of the cell, mitochondria (purple), are shown. #CellBiology

#PR Our ms on postsynaptic competition btw CaN/PP1 & PKA regulates mammalian sleep/wake cycles published in Nature. Congrats, Yimeng, Siyu, Daisuke and Koji! Wake/sleep roles of PKA & CaN first found in fly by @amitaseh in 2006 & @kume_kazuhiko in 2011 nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

Opinion piece: For too long, animal studies have overlooked #TimeOfDay as a critical biological variable. That needs to change. In PNAS Front Matter: ow.ly/9Vah50SOgYi #CircadianRhythms #SleepWakeCycle #chronobiology
