2017 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine

The 2017 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was awarded to Jeffrey C. Hall, Michael Rosbash and Michael W. Young for their elucidation of the molecular mechanisms controlling circadian rhythm.  Their pioneering work in Drosophila uncovered the internal oscillators, or clocks, that synchronise cellular metabolism and organismal behaviour to the light/dark cycle to generate biological rhythms with 24 hour periodicity.
