The Foundations of Radiochronobiology (RCB Foundations) just launched! RCB Foundations is an open-access knowledge base that bridges radiation biology and chronobiology through a strategic literature review. Here, we compile peer-reviewed, cross-disciplinary publications that demonstrate the interplay between radiation effects, circadian orchestration, cellular functions, and disease phenotypes. The scope covers eight endpoints and outcomes that are…

This past Wednesday, June 24th, 2026, marked a milestone for sleep and rhythm science: the inaugural World Circadian Day. And it launched in style with an outreach event on Reddit. The Society for Research on Biological Rhythms (SRBR) hosted a Reddit Ask Me Anything (AMA) event that brought together some of the field’s brightest minds.…

The first study that bridged radiation biology and chronobiology was performed at the Bowman Gray School of Medicine in Winston-Salem (NC, USA) and published in the journal Science in 1963. Donald J. Pizzarello, Richard L. Witcofski, and E. Ann Lyons asked a simple question: is the outcome from a given irradiation the same if it…
