Expression of the Circadian Clock Gene in the Hippocampus: Possible Implications for Synaptic Plasticity and Learned Behaviour

Genes responsible for generating circadian oscillations are expressed in a variety of brain regions not typically associated with circadian timing. The functions of this clock gene expression are largely unknown, and in the present study we sought to explore the role of the Per2 (Period 2) gene in h...
