I'm Waiting

I was discovered in 1958 by A. B. Lerner, professor of dermatology, and his colleagues at Yale University. A little later, it was discovered as a hormone produced in the brain at night that controls the sleep and wake cycle. Lerner gave me the name melatonin: from the Greek words melas, meaning "black" or "dark," and tonos, meaning "labor" or "color"
