Session SY74 - Unraveling the Complex Central Regulation of Food Intake
With the increasing incidence of obesity, there is a need to understand food intake and satiety. The hypothalamus controls energy homeostasis by changing the function of individual neuronal subtypes that either increase or decrease food intake. This symposium will present the latest findings in key neuronal populations and the evidence that these neurons have distinct functions to regulate feeding.
