Michael Smolensky is an American chronobiologist working in hypertension and pathophysiology. His highest cited paper is "Ethics and methods for biological rhythm research on animals and human beings"[1] at 739 times, according to Google Scholar.[2]

Education and career

He earned his Ph.D at University of Illinois.[3]

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).[4][5]

He is the author or co-author of more than 300 academic articles, and is also co-author with Lynne Lamberg of the popular 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][10].
