Yummy, das riecht gut! 🥘 Essensduft aktiviert bestimmte Nervenzellen in #Gehirn, die das Hungergefühl verringern. Deshalb haben wir nach dem Kochen, oft keinen #Appetit mehr. Der erste #Heißhunger ist verflogen: youtu.be/HTPll7fLl3c #Ernährung @DoktorWhatson

A @ScienceAdvances paper from @leslievosshall's lab finds that mosquitoes who have olfactory sensory loss maintain the overall effectiveness of their host-seeking behavior by up-regulating attraction to human skin temperature: science.org/doi/10.1126/scia…

Pleased to share our 'News and Views' with @cgardanaz on an exciting new candidate drug for combating obesity💊🍔! Grateful to @NatureNV for this great opportunity 😊. Congratulations to lead author @Z_GerhartHines and the entire team on this outstanding work 👏!
The discovery of a pathway that controls appetite and calorie burning has led to the development of a drug that modulates both by targeting one receptor, offering a promising strategy for weight loss and improved metabolic health go.nature.com/3Z5rtoW

Body and brain must communicate to adapt behavior efficiently. Using the fly, we discover a bidirectional pathway between the fat body and the brain and show that fat body-produced dopamine changes food preference.

Our latest preprint is live. Check out our study on how calcium-activated chloride channels sparsen peripheral inputs to the olfactory system. A group effort from the entire lab.

Curious about sister mitral and tufted cells in the olfactory bulb? Curious about imaging neuronal tissue with X-ray? Curious about combining X-ray with in vivo 2-photon?
Come check out our poster! (E37, 341.09) #SfN24

Hi @SfNtweets,
Neurons of the same olfactory circuit in the mammalian brain share firing properties while showing individual traits.
More about it today PM, poster E37 (PSTR341.09).
