A direct SCN-to-DMH output pathway organizes circadian behavioral timing

Nicole E Keene, Farina Pourmir, Ethan Hang, Mustafa Ozturgut, Dylan A. McCreedy, Jeff R. Jones

This study identifies a direct SCN-to-DMH pathway that organizes circadian locomotor timing by showing that intact DMH neurons, not local molecular clocks, are required for rhythmic behavior.
