New review on the influence of intestinal GLP-1 on food intake available by our PostDoc @jeanphikri ! #glp1 #ingestivebehavior #neuroscience #gutbrainaxis

[JP Krieger @jeanphikri]

How does intestinal GLP-1 reduce food intake? In my new review, I propose a new model of GLP-1 action via two distinct populations of vagal afferent neurons. https://t.co/gsPknuv3bq

Super excited to read this from @skibickalab: https://t.co/0d9MWpF8jR

[JP Krieger @jeanphikri]

Very happy to share our new data (with co-author @shinj_lee
and last author @GdeLartigue), showing that CART expression in vagal afferents is blunted in obesity which triggers hyperphagia and weight gain. What a ride! Out today in @CellReports

Today is this girls first official day as a PhD student in neuroscience @goteborgsuni @SahlgrenskaAcad 🎉 #phdlife #phdchat #AcademicTwitter #neuroscience #sweden

Since part of our group is spending their time abroad right now, it was the first time we had a #labmeeting using @Skype. Not bad! #visitingresearcher #PhDChat #obesity @uniofgothenburg #obesityresearch #AcademicTwitter

[Skibicka Lab @skibickalab]

Meet Stina Börchers, a #neurosciences master student from @UniBremen, Germany. Stina is currently working on her master’s thesis in our lab. She is interested in the neuroscience of #anxiety, which is highly comorbid with #obesity. @goteborgsuni @stinabiologista #AcademicTwitter

Meet our visiting #PhD researcher Sandro, who will stay in our group until december! Sandro is doing his PhD at the @UniLuebeck. He is interested in the neuropeptide nesfatin-1, which is produced in the hypothalamus and involved in energy homeostasis. #PhDChat #AcademicTwitter

Find our PI Karolina Skibicka at #SfN2019 in #Chicago this week! #academichatter #phdchat #sciencetwitter

[Anita Devineni @BrainsExplained]

By popular demand (i.e. one person commenting on Twitter), I made an SFN bingo card for those of you heading to #SfN19 this week

[Skibicka Lab @skibickalab]

Since we all have different projects going on which take place in different facilities, it is not often that we see the whole team. Yesterday 6 of us managed to finish off the week in a nice #afterwork setting! #WorkLifeBalance #teambuilding #AcademicTwitter @goteborgsuni

Exciting and recording the neural activity in real time from several brain regions of interest is vital to reveal the physiological functions of a brain area and its neuronal subpopulations (2/2)

[Skibicka Lab @skibickalab]

Meet Mohammed Asker! He just finished his master‘s and recently joined our lab as a #PhDstudent. Asker worked a lot with #FiberPhotometry in the rat brain. (1/2)

Hej twitterverse! Three of our group members just had two lovely days at the yearly kickoff of the Wallenberg Centre for Molecular and Translational Medicine. #wcmtm #gothenburguniversity #scitwitter #academictwitter #scicomm #wisskomm @goteborgsuni
