UWMDI postdoctoral fellow, Chelsea Faber, PhD, is first author on a manuscript entitled “Leptin receptor neurons in the dorsomedial hypothalamus regulate diurnal patterns of feeding, locomotion, and metabolism” that also includes UWMDI co-authors Jennifer Deem, PhD, Jarrad Scarlett, MD, PhD, Michael Schwartz, MD and senior author, Gregory Morton, PhD. An improved understanding of the neurocircuits that couple circadian systems to energy homeostasis will facilitate the development of new strategies for the treatment of obesity.
