Aim Exposure to artificial light at night (ALAN) is a risk factor for organisms. Considering the
spread and increasing intensity of night brightness across the globe, and the key role of light …

Photoperiod is an important factor of mammalian seasonal rhythm. The Harderian gland
(HG) appears to act as a “standby” structure of the retinal-pineal axis, mediating light signals …

Some seasonally-breeding animals are more aggressive during the short,“winter-like” days
(SD) of the non-breeding season, despite gonadal regression and reduced circulating …

Date and latitude interact to determine photoperiod, the daily period of daylight. This
interaction has important implications for latitudinal migrants for whom daylight may be a …

Mammals display diverse reproductive strategies, however, the ultimate and proximate
mechanisms that underlie this diversity and its composite traits remain poorly understood …

Cancer is a systemic disease. In order to fully understand it, we must take a holistic view on
how cancer interacts with its host. The brain monitors and responds to natural and aberrant …
