Czeisler, C.A., Duffy, J.F. et al. (1999) Stability, precision, and near -24-hour period of the human
circadian pacemaker.
Almost all of the cells in our body contain a circadian clock and are mainly controlled by a central
circadian pacemaker, located in the hypothalamus of the brain.
Dr. Czeisler's laboratory research is focused on understanding the neurobiology of the human
circadian pacemaker and its interaction with the sleep homeostat, and on applying that knowledge to clinical medicine and occupational health.

circadian rhythms.
