Theoretical Chronobiology

Theoretical chronobiology is the scientific study of biological rhythms, such as sleep-wake cycles and hormone levels, and how these patterns are regulated by internal biological clocks and external cues like light and temperature. It involves using mathematical models and theories to understand and predict how these rhythms develop, synchronize, and change over time. This field helps explain the underlying mechanisms of daily, seasonal, and other periodic biological processes, providing insights into health, behavior, and disease management related to our natural biological timing systems.
