Circadian clocks ensure that we modulate our physiological behaviors, like sleeping and eating, in a rhythmic, 24-hour cycle. They are present in all living cells, from cyanobacteria to humans. The ...

Most biochemical reactions accelerate as temperature increases, but our daily circadian rhythms, which are underlain by gene regulatory and biochemical networks, remain constant, even as temperatures ...

All life on Earth has evolved to cope with a rotating planet which results in the predictable transition between day and night. The details differ between plants, fungi, bacteria, and animals, but the ...

Biological rhythms are ubiquitous in nature, from the beating of the heart to the rhythms of flowering plants. A research team has shown that the two main cellular oscillators -- the circadian clock ...

We've already nudged you this week about the benefits of breakfast. And this got us thinking more about the timing of our meals. There's a growing body of evidence to suggest that when we eat during a ...

When you're comparing two of the best CPUs, the first spec that comes to mind is clock speed. It quite literally represents how fast the CPU can churn through clock cycles, and naturally, you'd assume ...

In these times when we try to squeeze out extra clock cycles by adding more cores to our CPUs and by enlisting the aid of GPUs, [Ido Gendel] thought it would be fun to go in the exact opposite ...
