Timing of neuropeptide coupling determines synchrony and entrainment in the mammalian circadian clock.
Robust synchronization is a critical feature of several systems including the mammalian circadian clock. The master circadian clock in mammals consists of about 20000 'sloppy' neuronal oscillators within the hypothalamus that keep robust time by synchronization driven by inter-neuronal cou...
