Do Straw Men Evolve from Red Herrings: Evolution, Creation and Intelligent Design

Vincent M Cassone is interested in the mechanisms by which organisms tell time-time of day, time of year and even the passage of time from birth to death. In particular, his research asks how the circadian biological clock regulates complex behavior and physiology. Currently, the lab is studying how the circadian clock regulates the timing and complexity of avian bird song as well as the regulation of the gastrointestinal system in both birds and mammals.
