Postdoctoral or Graduate work in DROSOPHILA CIRCADIAN RHYTHMS PROJECT

​

Our laboratory investigates how the circadian clock imposes a daily rhythmicity to the emergence of adult Drosophila, which serves as a model for understanding how the circadian clock is coupled to physiology and behavior. We recently demonstrated that the circadian rhythm of adult emergence depends on the coupling between circadian pacemaker neurons and the neurons that control the synthesis of the molting hormone, ecdysone (www.nature.com/articles/ncomms15563)

​

We are always seeking talented individuals to do postdoctoral or graduate work investigating how the circadian clock is coupled to the mechanism that controls the timing of adult emergence..
