Grant Activity:
Top down cortical control of hypothalamic feeding circuits
Purpose:
Obesity continues to be a significant burden to public health shows no sign of slowing. A central part of the problem is the overconsumption calorically dense, highly palatable and innately rewarding foods. Although genetic evidence shows this overconsumption is driven by our brain, the precise way this occurs remain unknown. In this proposal, we will assess how the brain cortex communicates with the hypothalamus in order to control food intake, food motivation and the development of obesity.
