Michael Smolensky is an American chronobiologist working in hypertension and pathophysiology.
Education and career
[edit]He earned his Ph.D at University of Illinois.[1]
He founded and for 10 years directed the Memorial-Hermann Center for Chronobiology and Chronotherapeutics (the first polyclinic to use biological rhythm to diagnose and cure disease).[2][3]
He is the author or co-author of more than 300 academic articles; his highest cited paper is "Ethics and methods for biological rhythm research on animals and human beings".[4] at 739 times, according to Google Scholar.[5] He also co-authored (alongside Lynne Lamberg) the book The Body Clock Guide to Better Health which is held in 449 libraries.[6]
He recently was involved in works upon resilience and circadian reliability of fire departments with French firefighters.[7][8][9]
