  • At Hogwarts, we get the rhythms of the school year: the classes, new teachers, spells gone wrong, midnight feasts, Quidditch competitions, bad marks for mischief, exams, Christmas break, and so on.

  • The fruitfly, Drosophila melanogaster, has been the outstanding model organism for studying genetic, molecular, neural and behavioral substrates of circadian rhythms [reviewed, for example, in [ 4 5 6 ] ]. Recent studies have demonstrated that many molecular components of a circadian clock, several of which were initially identified in Drosophila, exhibit clock function in mammals as well.

  • Previous studies of cryptochrome's chronobiological role in Drosophila emphasized that CRY may function as a deep brain photoreceptor involved in mediating resetting of the clock by light [ 26 ] . Support for this hypothesis came from the observation that locomotor-activity rhythms in cry b flies are unaffected in constant darkness and also maintain rhythmicity under constant light, a condition that causes behavioral arrhythmicity in the wild type [ 33 ] . While antennal rhythms of gene expression and of odor sensitivity in DD are significantly attenuated in cry b tissues ( [ 23 ] , unlike locomotor rhythmicity [ 21 ] ), it remained possible that such effects are due to an altered role of light on the developing clock.

  • Empirically, in analysis of heartbeat rhythms, the 3 rdpeak proved the most reliable.
