My guest on episode 53 of the podcast is Dr. John Hogenesch.


John is a professor of pediatrics and chair of the divisions of human genetics, immunobiology, and pulmonary medicine at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center, where his work focuses on the genetics of circadian timing in humans and other mammals.


John and his colleagues are credited with the discovery of the master regular of the circadian clock known as Bmal1, and later its paralog Bmal2, as well as several other components of the circadian clock.


In this episode, we discuss some of the fundamental aspects of circadian biology and circadian rhythms in humans — why they evolved, and their major importance to health and implication and disease.
