Less is more: Light sampling via throttled visual phototransduction robustly synchronizes the <i>Drosophila</i> circadian clock in the absence of Cryptochrome

2020-03-10

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> The daily changes of light and dark exemplify a prominent cue for the synchronization of internal circadian clocks to external time. The match between external and internal time is crucial for the fitness of organisms and desynchronization has been linked to numerous physical and mental health problems in humans. Organisms therefore developed complex and not fully understood mechanisms to synchro...
