Happy Glp1rS33W day, December 18th!

It turns out today is the humanized "Glp1rS33W" rodent model day. Here is another one published today by Eli Lilly and Company @EliLillyandCo science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… Didn't know... we could have had a party 😉🥳🎉

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: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 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/

🚨 neuroscience tenure track faculty openings in the Department of Biology at the University of Virginia! Application review begins Oct. 4th

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. gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%…
