Research grant awarded to study neural circuits and metabolic mechanisms related to glucose mobilization in the hypothalamus, focusing on cholecystokinin b receptor containing neurons.
Description
This is a research grant opportunity focused on neural circuits and metabolic mechanisms related to stress-induced hyperglycemia. The project involves neuroanatomical tracing, behavioral phenotyping, and genomic bioinformatics. The project aims to define neural pathways and mechanisms in the ventromedial nucleus of the hypothalamus.
