Harvard SEAS: Frank Doyle Elected to National Academy of Medicine
Two new DoyleGroup Ph.D.s!
Congratulations to Dr. Lauren Huyett and Dr. Joon Bok Lee both of whom successfully defended their dissertations this morning! We will miss their presence in our lab, but we are excited to see what great accomplishments lie ahead.
Mapping the circuit of our internal clock
Harvard SEAS: “Research sheds light the neural structure that controls our sleep, eating habits, hormones and more.” See within for press from our most recent study of the circadian clock.

ScienceDaily: Researchers reveal, to single-cell resolution, the network of circadian neurons
While the overall effects of circadian activities have been studied, relatively little is understood about the structure of the network of brain cells as they communicate to control the synchronization process. In a paper that appears in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, UC Santa Barbara [and Harvard!] researchers and collaborators infer the architecture of the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN), the control center for the circadian processes in mammals.
