Our collaborative team at UVA Biology Department @uvabio including the labs of Chris Deppmann @deppmann and John Campbell @AUGCsoup are awesome. They all made it fun!
You can read more about it here: https://t.co/QZXP0fABjO Send us feedback on how we can improve our manuscript. All this work was led by three very talented graduate students: Lizzie Godschall @LizzieGodschall, Buğra Güngül @bugragungul and Isabelle Sajonia @isabellesajonia. 15/
GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) are transforming the treatment of obesity and diabetes (and more). Our recent pre-print examined next-gen small molecules mimicking GLP-1, using humanized mouse models to uncover how they interact with brain circuits driving food consumption. 1/
Come be my colleague! Application review begins on Oct 4! Make sure to have your materials submitted by then to be among the first future faculty we get to learn about. @UVA_PFN@uvabio@UVA_Brain
Mice are obsessed with palatable high-fat diet, devaluing standard chow even when super hungry. Our latest work shows this is dependent on the amount and type of fat, experience, and post-ingestive feedback thru fat absorption, not taste or smell. https://t.co/OLoYTb09t6

Interested in the biology of GLP-1 in the nervous system? Where is it made, how does it work, endogenous physiology vs. pharmacology? Therapeutic potential? Coming up in September A workshop, register here @theNASEM#Parkinsonsdisease#Alzheimersdisease https://t.co/mpC51tWHWW
GLP-1RAs are neuroprotective in most preclinical studies. Here we detect robust glucose control & #weightloss yet no reduction in plaque, hippocampal IBA1 or GFAP + cells nor cytokine expression with semaglutide or tirzepatide in APP/S1 and 5XFAD mice https://t.co/K1QGDoGTMv
