In this episode of The Observable Unknown, Dr. Juan Carlos Rey of CrowsCupboard.com uncovers the hidden clockwork of the living body - the molecular rhythms that measure dawn, dusk, and everything between. Drawing on the Nobel-winning research of Jeffrey C. Hall, Michael Rosbash, and Michael W. Young, whose fruit-fly experiments at Brandeis University and Rockefeller University revealed the PER gene and its feedback loop, Dr. Rey shows how each of us carries an internal timepiece.
From the suprachiasmatic nucleus in the brain to the clocks in our livers and immune cells, our biology lives in sync - or out of sync - with the cycles of Earth. Misalignment doesn’t just bring tiredness - it rewires mood, metabolism, and meaning.
Whether you rise with the sun or scroll into the night, this show reveals that time is not simply measured - it is embodied.
Please rate, review, and share your reflections wherever you’re listening.
