Schematic functional map of circadian control. Studies have demonstrated the SCN efferent primarily travel to other hypothalamic nuclei incuding dorsomedial hypothalamus (DMH), subparaventricular zone (sPVZ) and more. A map of direct SCN neuron projections to sleep-awake or cognitive centers in the brain (A) and the intra-SCN (bilateral) connectomes (B), with the details in connection density and neuron types, remains elusive at the moment
