Dr. Jon Jacklet is doing research on biological rhythms at                 the cellular and molecular levels.  He is asking fundamental                    questions about neural circadian pacemakers: How do specific                    genes contribute to the pacemaker?  What is the function of the                 "period" gene product?  How is circadian clock information                      transmitted to the central nervous system, to the contralateral                 paired ocular pacemaker?  What transmitters are used?  How does                 efferent innervation modulate the pacemaker?  These questions are               being addressed by appropriate experimental approaches and                      testing specific hypotheses using the circadian pacemaker neurons               found in the eyes of invertebrate species (Aplysia and Bulla).                  Dr. Jacklet uses in vitro organ culture in which the circadian                  rhythms are expressed very clearly for experimental purposes.                   This work is important for the fundamental understanding of how                 the body takes in light-dark (visual) cycle information and codes               it for ever changing body functions.//
