Biological Clocks


With the help of the National Science Foundation (NSF), Arnold is examining the molecular basis of the biological clock. "The clock is a fairly complicated timepiece inside each of us," notes Arnold. "In order to understand how it works, we started with an organism that is very simple, (one that) doesn't have as many gears to worry about."
