A molecular profiling approach to quantify transcripts and proteins from identical samples allows study of molecular effects of maturation, sexual differentiation and the endogenous circalunar clock in a marine worm.
An internal clock based on brain levels of dopamine works with the circadian clock to maintain daily patterns of alertness and activity, and may be implicated in the altered behavioral patterns seen in schizophrenia and bipolar disorder.

Genomic approaches can be integrated with epidemiological and ecological studies to provide high-resolution answers to open questions about schistosomiasis transmission dynamics, offering a level of precision that is actionable, such that schistosomiasis-control programming can be tailored to regional contexts.
Artificial light causes changes to gene expression and cellular signaling cascades that coordinate mass spawning events for a species of coral from the Great Barrier Reef.

The biocontrol fungus Trichoderma atroviride possess a functional circadian clock, whose components impact the production of secondary metabolites and also play a role in the interaction with fungi such as the phytopathogen Botrytis cinerea.
