RENO, Nevada – As millions of Americans adjusted their clocks for daylight saving time this week, many experience disruptions in their sleep and daily routines – a reminder of the importance of circadian rhythms that govern internal biological clocks. New research, led in part by Meet Zandawala, assistant professor of biochemistry and molecular biology at the University of Nevada, Reno, and his colleagues offers fresh insights into how these networks function, potentially paving the way for solutions to better manage circadian rhythm disruptions and the effects of time shifts like daylight saving time. The team of international researchers, including Zandawala, has created the first comprehensive map of the circadian clock network in the fruit fly brain. This groundbreaking research, published in Nature Communications, provides new insights into how the brain regulates sleep, metabolism and hormone release.

Undaunted by what her friends and family thought of women fighting in a war, Starr enlisted in the Navy in early 1944 because she wanted to serve her country.
