Dim nighttime illumination alters photoperiodic responses of hamsters through the intergeniculate leaflet and other photic pathways

In mammals, light entrains the central pacemaker within the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) via both a direct neuronal projection from the retina and an indirect projection from the intergeniculate leaflet (IGL) of the thalamus. Although light comparable in intensity to moonlight is minimally effectiv...
