Journal of Chronotherapy and Drug Delivery is a peer-reviewed journal of biomedical rhythm research. It is a multidisciplinary journal focusing on biological rhythm phenomena of all life forms and its significance in therapeutics in humans. Chronobiology, chronopharmacology, chronopharmacokinetics, chronotherapeutics and chronopharmaceutics are the areas of research interest, which are attracting worldwide scientific community. Development of drug delivery systems to treat the diseases according to the biological rhythm of the disease is another area of significant interest. Chronopharmacology and Chronotherapeutics are developing areas in the west; whereas, Indian system of medicine—Ayurveda—has taken into account the importance of timing in administration of medication.

About Insignia

In 1751, a Swedish botanist, Carolus Linneus used flower opening timings as clock to denote time. This was the first ever study of biological rhythms. Hence, Linneus clock has a historical as well as scientific significance in the field of chronobiology.
