Summary
The paper investigates the role of murine cones in the circadian system, demonstrating that cones contain a functional self-sustained molecular clockwork and contribute to the retinal circadian organisation.
Categories
Cognitive function and memory: The paper discusses the role of cones in the circadian system, which is crucial for cognitive function and memory.
Alertness and performance: The paper's findings on the role of cones in the circadian system are relevant to alertness and performance, as the circadian system regulates sleep-wake cycles.
Hormone regulation: The paper discusses the role of cones in the circadian system, which is involved in the regulation of various hormones.
Phototherapy: The paper's findings on the role of cones in the circadian system could have implications for phototherapy, which often involves manipulating light exposure to influence the circadian system.
Lighting Design Considerations: The paper's findings on the role of cones in the circadian system could inform lighting design considerations, as light exposure influences the circadian system.
