2SFP Future Direction of Circadian Clock Research from the Viewpoint of Diverse Rhythmic Phenomena

Wed. Nov 15, 2023 2:00 PM - 4:30 PM Room F (Conference Room 231 (Bldg. 2, 3F))

Organizers: Akiyama Shuji (IMS)、Terauchi Kazuki (Ritsumeikan Univ.)

Circadian clocks have three common characteristics: free-running oscillations, temperature compensation, and entrainment. While molecular bases for these three properties are being elucidated, the nature of the core oscillator and its diversity remain largely unexplored, and are being actively studied from approaches such as physiology, biophysics, and structural biology. In addition, in response to the growing interest in a style of "create to understand", some research is also being conducted from the perspective of how well sophisticated properties such as circadian clocks can be granted to soft matter. In this symposium, considering complex diversity and commonality found in cyanobacteria, duckweed, and artificial gels, we would like to discuss future approaches to elucidate the circadian clock systems.
