海角社区 the Lab
The research in the lab is primarily focused on understanding how the brain senses and integrates internal and external signals to maintain energy balance and physiological stability. Our research focuses on dissecting the neural circuits and molecular pathways that govern fundamental processes, such as feeding, thermoregulation, and immune function.
