We spend more time indoors and under artificial light than ever before. What does that mean for our circadian rhythms? ⏰ This 2019 #JBR article explains how light timing shapes sleep, performance, and metabolism, and offers tips on better light hygiene.

Kyoto University (where the predecessor of The Meth Lab was located until 2020) is overhauling its monolithic structure, notably to make it much more friendly to early career researchers. You can feel the influence of its many Nobel laureates!
Please also take a look at The Centre for Biological Timing and reach out with any question you may have about biological timing and health (@Time_MCR):

By the way, The Meth Lab has an official page (never mind the http address, a quirk from our University of Manchester):

OK, let's start again! Our previous post provided a direct link the the pdf version of Jess' paper. What we meant to share was this:

Haven't been very active recently, but we are still kicking! Congrats to Jess who just published her first paper as a second year PhD student!

New Paper Alert!
Available now in @iScience_CP:
Timed exercise stabilizes behavioral rhythms but not molecular programs in the brain’s suprachiasmatic clock. cell.com/iscience/fulltext/S…
New exciting paper out on the effects of scheduled exercices on behaviour and gene expression, lead by Prof Hugh Piggins. It was great to be involved in this. Congratulations to first author Timna!

Very happy this is getting attention! The fake meat products are marketed saying their protein content is closed to meat, but will never provide the essential nutrients real meat do. What's the vitamin content of Beyond Mince? 0. Https://www.sciencealert.com…
