The symposium and subsequent proceedings strive to integrate clinical, physiological, rhythmic, pharmacological, cellular, and molecular aspects of the biosynthesis, metabolism, regulation, and action of melatonin and related indoles. Some 70 papers focus on recent advances in pineal research and their clinical applications, considering such topics as the role of the pineal gland in rhythmic functions, the pineal-retinal relationship, and therapeutic prospects for melatonin and its analogues.
