Dr. Vincent Cassone is a Professor at the University of Kentucky, specializing in Chronobiology, Neuroscience, and Microbiome research. His work focuses on circadian rhythms in vertebrates, particularly birds, and their neuroendocrine implications. He leads the Cassone laboratory, which explores biological clocks' regulation of physiology and behavior, including gastrointestinal function and avian communication systems.
Research interests include the functional genomics of the avian circadian clock, seasonal and circadian regulation of bird song, and circadian clocks in gastrointestinal bacteria like Klebsiella aerogenes. His lab emphasizes independent student projects within these frameworks, fostering interdisciplinary collaboration.
No specific scientific awards or grants are listed in the provided text. The laboratory's activities include investigations into melatonin's role in circadian synchronization and the interaction between microbial circadian rhythms and host physiology.
