SUMMARY:Seasonal Rhythms
DESCRIPTION:Life on earth follows distinct rhythms. In addition to circadia
 n rhythms, seasonal rhythms govern essential functions (metabolism, reprodu
 ction, immune response) of plants and animals. Also humans show seasonal va
 riation in well-being and health. Seasonal rhythms affect ecosystems with c
 onsequences for biodiversity and mankind. Climate change modifies seasonal 
 rhythms to which many species have adapted over thousands of years. Thus, s
 easonal rhythms are of high biomedical, ecological and social relevance. Du
 ring the symposium internationally renowned scientists will present novel d
 ata and concepts on the mechanisms underlying the regulation of seasonal rh
 ythms and discuss their impact on individuals and societies.  The symposium
  is organised by Leopoldina member Prof. Dr Horst-Werner Korf.  \n\nSpeaker
