Delighted to share our collaborative efforts exploring the basis of leptin resistance in obesity. We address the long-standing enigma that obese humans and animals exhibit elevated leptin levels and show little response to exogenous leptin therapy. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

I'm honored and very excited to be presenting two of my games at the PAX Rising Showcase at #PAXUnplugged. The two games are: The Genetic Code, a collaboration with Kristina, and Floristry with @deg23deg. Come check out my other prototypes as well at the The Unpublished Games Network room 201B.

BREAKING: Man eats a full jar of cheeseballs in Union Square Park today. For the last 2 weeks, his posters promoting the challenge were spotted across the city. Today he made history. Cheeseballman427’s identity is unknown but he’s a local hero to many NYC patrons. We expect

Lots of bioRxiv citations in talks at the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Symposium (like many meetings), but amazing to see it feature in Jeff Friedman’s public lecture to the local community 😀

A new study from the #FriedmanLab in Cell Metabolism identifies a neural mechanism involved in leptin resistance—and, crucially, a way to reverse it in mice using a well-known drug. #RockefellerScience rockefeller.edu/news/37433-res…

30 years after discovering leptin, Jeff Friedman's lab has located a neural mechanism in obese mice that helps explain leptin resistance. In this Q&A, he discusses how dysregulated leptin leads us to put on pounds, new treatments for obesity, and more: rockefeller.edu/news/37460-a-s…

A prelude: 1. Humans with obesity have high endogenous leptin levels. 2. Exogenous leptin is insufficient to reduce weight in these individuals. 3. Leptin resistance is thought to involve a putative block in the brain. What are the biological substrates of this putative block?
