Betley J Nicholas
The brain regulates food intake by processing sensory cues and peripheral physiological signals. Recently, we have gained an increased understanding of the neural networks that regulate food intake. However, understanding how nutrients and post-ingestive signals regulate the activity of hunger-sensitive neurons remains an important question. To understand the neural control of food intake, we monitor the activity of hunger-sensitive neural populations in the awake behaving ani...
