Time of Your Life is a hands-on activity for all ages that will demonstrate the pervasive influence of our body clock in our day-to-day life and how the clock works at the cellular level; it will also demonstrate the daily variability in measurable activities through interactive “Chronolympics” games.
Together with visitors, researchers from the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology will explore our ongoing questions: What is a circadian rhythm? Why do we have a circadian rhythm? Where is the circadian clock? How is it synchronised with day/night? What do we know about circadian medicine and disease?
