Thanks to the reviewers 🙏
Also, we’re looking for a Postdoc to explore how obesity-associated genetic variants impact hypothalamic circuits using CRISPR-based Perturb-seq & in vivo metabolic phenotyping

👩🔬 @ZRgaard is a translational neuroscientist developing human stem cell models for disease modelling and drug discovery.
🧫 As a postdoc in the @tunepers Group, she is responsible for turning her novel in vitro hypothalamic stem model into one that can be used to assess the effect of genetic perturbations on hypothalamic function.
💊 Zehra aims to push the field with human hypothalamus-specific models to advance translatability and develop better treatments for people living with metabolic diseases.
Read more about her in this edition of Faces of CBMR! 👇

Fedme er et meget komplekst fænomen. Og nogle af gåderne og misforståelserne om fedme, er en stor del af denne kompleksitet, fortæller @tunepers og @ClemmensenC om i den nyeste forskningsartikel på Lundbeckfonden.com.

We are excited to announce that the application period is now open for Metabolism in Action 2024!
The conference is taking place November 18-22, and will bring together leading experts with the brightest post-doctoral and doctoral students to create an inspiring, international, and open environment to explore the influence of molecular and tissue-specific regulation of metabolism.
This year's topics include:
🧬 Genetics of cardiometabolic diseases
👩💻 Functional genomics and proteomics
🌐 Multi-omics and systems biology
⚡ Metabolic signaling and organ crosstalk
🧠 Neuro and incretin biology of energy metabolism
🏃♀️ Exercise and circadian biology
🍩 Adipose and islet biology
👨⚕️ Novel mechanisms of action and treatment of cardiometabolic diseases
There is limited space available - apply now! 👇
