The 2nd Denis Richard International Symposium on Obesity is this week in Quebec City! Excited to gather leading experts to discuss obesity science across four sessions: Highway to Hunger, Metabolism in Sync, Genetic Codes & Surgical Roads, and Beyond BMI, Beyond Willpower!

Another tour de force from the Tong lab!

Excited to share our new study arguing for the existence of parallel neural pathways mediated by LepR or non-LepR neurons that each is sufficient to drive obesity. The obesity driven by non-LepR neurons is relevant to DIO and can be a novel neural basis for leptin resistance.
