the study of the timing of biological systems
The study of internal body rhythms in order to map hormonal, nerve, and immune system cyclical functions. Chronobiologists hope to design hormone replacement and other strategies based on these cycles that will work more effectively and safely than prescription drugs and help extend life.
The study of biological systems as affected by time. Aging, biological rhythms, and cyclic phenomena are included. Statistical, computer-aided mathematical procedures are used to describe, in mathematical terminology, various biological functions over time.
The study of duration of life.
The interaction of time and biology in the regulation of human behavior.
the scientific study of biological rhythms and timing mechanisms, sleep-wake cycles, heart rate, hibernation cycles, and body temperature.
The science relating to temporal, primarily rhythmical, processes in biology.
A subdiscipline of biology concerned with the timing of biological events, especially repetitive or cyclical phenomena, in individual organisms.
Chronobiology is the aspect of biology concerned with the timing of biological events, especially repetitive or cyclic phenomena in individual organisms.
the science of investigating and objectively quantifying phenomena and mechanisms of the biologic time structure, such as circadian rhythms. It is a new and rapidly developing specialty.
Chronobiology is a field of science that examines periodic (cyclic) phenomena in living organisms. These cycles are known as biological rhythms. "Chrono" pertains to time and "biology" pertains to the study, or science, of life.
