Toward an Indoor Lighting Solution for Social Jet Lag Open
There is growing interest in developing artificial lighting that stimulates intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs) to entrain circadian rhythms to improve mood, sleep, and health. Efforts have focused on stimulating t…

The circadian molecular clock in the suprachiasmatic nucleus is necessary but not sufficient for fear entrainment Open
We show that nocturnal aversive stimuli presented to mice while they are eating and drinking outside of their safe nest can entrain circadian behaviors, leading to a shift toward daytime activity. We also show that the canonical molecular …

Expression of the vesicular GABA transporter within neuromedin S <sup>+</sup> neurons sustains behavioral circadian rhythms Open
The suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) of the hypothalamus is the site of a central circadian clock that orchestrates overt rhythms of physiology and behavior. Circadian timekeeping requires intercellular communication among SCN neurons, and mu…

Nocturnal aversive stimuli presented to mice during eating and drinking outside of their safe nest can entrain circadian behaviors, leading to a shift toward daytime activity. We show that the canonical molecular circadian clock is necessa…

Effect of cone spectral topography on chromatic detection sensitivity Open
The spatial and spectral topography of the cone mosaic set the limits for detection and discrimination of chromatic sinewave gratings. Here, we sought to compare the spatial characteristics of mechanisms mediating hue perception against th…

High acuity vision corrected for chromatic and monochromatic aberrations is associated with color discrimination without red-green or blue-yellow sensations Open
From the earliest measurements of contrast sensitivity for chromatic gratings, it has been reported that isoluminant red-green gratings appear achromatic at high spatial frequencies. To better understand this phenomenon, we used a forced-c…
