Exposure to zeitgeber changes onset of next cycle depending on when it occurs
Phase advance (shortens current cycle; next "day" starts sooner)(see Fig. 4B)
Phase delay (lengthens current cycle; next "day" starts later)(see Fig. 4 A)
Video on how phase response curves are created and how they enable us to predict the effect that a brief exposure to a zietgeber with have on activity rhythms.
