As undergraduates, we might learn about the menstrual cycle in humans, seasonal changes in reproductive physiology in many animal species, and the circadian and ultradian patterns of cortisol secretion. In recent decades, research has started to uncover the full scope of the circadian clock’s influence on physiology (and pathophysiology). It is increasingly clear that we need to account for this in experimental design. In this workshop, I...
