Depression linked to a shifted biological clock
Original: 🧠 Depression: a shifted biological clock
Researchers report that depression may be tied to a shifted biological clock, with the body's circadian rhythms running out of sync in people affected by the condition. The finding adds to growing evidence that disrupted sleep-wake cycles play a role in mood disorders and could point to new timing-based approaches to treatment.
Why now: New research linking circadian rhythm disruption to depression is drawing attention to the biology of the illness
