I will be at a career panel for ABRCMS this afternoon, talking about my experiences UC San Francisco and HHMI. Stop by and say hi if you are around.

Just in time for t-day! How do we know when we are full? Well, lots of reasons, but here Zachary Knight and co show that a key factor is sensory and mechanical feedback from mouth and gut. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Brain cells that control how quickly mice eat, and when they stop, have been identified by Zachary Knight and colleagues. The findings could lead to a better understanding of human appetite, says Chen Ran. Read nature. nature.com/articles/d4158…

This new study by Tara Aitken shows that taste cues regulate AgRP neurons, and their inputs in the DMH, during ingestion. This gustatory feedback controls the timing of meal termination, linking the dynamics of AgRP neurons during feeding to the control of behavior.

We are thrilled to share a new study from the lab on the neural mechanism of helping behavior. Humans and animals exhibit helping behavior toward others in need. In this study, we report an intriguing form of helping behavior that an individual exhibits toward others experiencing

This will be a fun meeting - applications are open now.

Integration of external information and internal bodily signals help animals decide what and how much to eat. Join experts in diverse areas of sensory biology and across model systems to explore the science of #ingestion Learn more & apply by June 24 @ janelia.news/EAT24
