Research
The main interest of my lab is to investigate how solar and lunar light are sensed by the nervous system and how this light information impacts on the animals' information processing and endogenous clocks.
In particular, we aim to decipher the neuron types and molecules underlying fundamental, yet unexplored monthly oscillators (so-called circalunar clocks), using the bristle worm Platynereis dumerilii and the midge Clunio marinus.
