Ness-Cohn et al claim that our observations of transcriptional circadian rhythms in the absence of the core clock gene Bmal1 in mouse skin fibroblast cells are supported by inadequate evidence. They claim that they were unable to reproduce some of the original findings with their reanalysis. We disagree with their analyses and outlook.
