Super Star scientist and person, Arash, describing his research.

What? A seminar by Caltech's Dr. Yuki Oka on the Central Modulation of Salt Valence... When? Tuesday 12/12 (tomorrow!) Where? Register at monell.org/events #HappeningTomorrow

Why do we love cake and ice cream? My lab's latest paper in Cell Metabolism led by Molly McDougle, PhD identifies separate gut-reward circuits for fat and sugar. Foods combining fat and sugar recruit both reward circuits to increase motivation to overeating. authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S15…

Thrilled to announce the publication of our manuscript 🥳 The culmination of years of work by the Krause-de Kloet lab and colleagues and a large portion of my dissertation work! Eric Krause Khalid Elsaafien 🧠🫀 Dominique Johnson Jesús Peñaloza jneurosci.org/content/early/…

Our collaboration with the deKloet and Krause lab is out. Congratulations to Caitlin on a beautiful study using state-of-the-art techniques studying the role of agt1r vagal sensory populations in regulating blood pressure.

Come and work with us in Sunny London! We have up to two postdoctoral positions to investigate the cellular, circuit and synaptic basis of how internal states such as hunger and thirst can be used to guide behaviour. Apply until Feb 8th here: ucl.ac.uk/work-at-ucl/se…

This is cool. Our @cell_metabolism paper on fat and sugar reward is the most trending in #endocrinology over the last month. Congrats team Molly McDougle, PhD Arashdeep Singh🐁🧠🥙 Alan Araujo, PhD Mingxin Yang Isadora

Clip from my conversation with Guillaume de Lartigue: "Gut-Brain Communication, Vagus Nerve, Fats & Sugars, Food Addiction, Gut Hormones & Weight Loss Drugs" In this clip, we discuss artificial sweeteners, gut hormones like leptin and GLP-1, and how the newest weight loss drugs work.

Had a really great off-the-cuff discussion with Nick Jikomes Nick Jikomes from the Mind Matters podcast about our recent paper and much more related to food choice, non-nutritive sweeteners, and glp1 drugs.

Phenomenal NIDDK workshop on the Gut-Brain Axis... learned so much about #obesity and other Disorders of Gut-Brain Interaction! Lots of basic & translational progress to make!

Amazing work in nature from my colleague AmberAlhadeff identifying the hindbrain as the site of action of GLP1R agonists. They were able to dissociate the satiety and aversive effects of these drugs paving the way for improved anti-obesity drugs. Groundbreaking research!

What meetings like SSIB are all about. Scientific discussion across 5 countries and 3 continents over Chicago dogs and beers!

The #SSIB2024 distinguished career award winner: Helen Raybould. She provided guidance to the next generation of trainees. Her advice, "If a door is ajar, Kick the door open."

I am super honored to have been invited by the student committee on neurometabolism! Can't wait to visit Quebec City and meet everyone. It's going to be "hyper chouette"!

Amazing trip to Quebec City. Olivier Lavoie and Alex Caron were awesome hosts. Great scientific discussions, saw some of the sites, and had great delicious food. Even had my first "running meeting" with Vicky Drapeau. Thank you for the invitation Student Committee in Neurometabolism!

Hi, we are collecting some information from laboratory users of FED3 and FED3VIZ. This is a short survey that should only take 1-2 min. forms.gle/z5rpZ9unm2x2... Please retweet. Thanks.
