- Excited to see @stephenorahilly.bsky.social discuss the current understanding of GDF15/GFAL signaling. Implications for feeding, cancer cachexia, pregnancy, lean/fat ratio. Bonus: adipose imperfecta discussion!
- Great visit from @andrewhardaway.bsky.social from #UAB We learned how brain circuits in the central amygdala tune responses to GLP-1. Insights wibh implications for obesity therapies. Topped off with some #TerryBlacksBBQ! #SSIBlingsintheWild @zigmanlab.bsky.social @ssibsociety.bsky.social

- #SSIBlingsintheWild with @docderek.bsky.social and #JeffreyZigman Nothing like good steak with great friends. Perfect lead-in to learning about GLP-1 and thirst! @ssibsociety.bsky.social
- Big thanks to Dr. Derek Daniels (@docderek.bsky.social) for an outstanding talk today! Fascinating talk on the brain circuits of thirst...Eye-opening to see GLP-1’s role beyond feeding.

- Reposted by thewilliamslabWe are proud of Omprakash Singh's new study just out in Cell Reports. Supported by Sepideh Sheybani-Deloui et al, Om's work identifies GHSR expressing SCN neurons as regulating food intake + feed efficiency at a single time of day, accounting for at least 7% of a mouse's BW doi.org/10.1016/j.ce...
