🚀Exciting opportunity at Gallant Bio! 🚀 We are pioneering first-in-class, brain-targeted treatments for metabolic disease and are looking for a visionary Head of Development to lead our preclinical strategy. Check the link below for more details. 👇 linkedin.com/jobs/view/4137…

🚨 Join Our Team! 🚨 We’re on the hunt for a brilliant postdoctoral researcher with a passion for neuroscience or metabolic disease. This is your chance to work at the intersection of academia & industry, driving innovation in obesity & T2D research. 🌟 jobs.unimelb.edu.au/caw/en/job/919…

For the first time, research has shown that impaired brain cells linked to body weight and hunger can be restored - opening up new treatments for obesity and type 2 diabetes. Associate Professor @garrondodd from @UniMelbMDHS explains → unimelb.me/4e9h9RB @CaitBeddows…

Obesity is driven by a build-up of molecular mesh around hunger neurons go.nature.com/4e67NpL

The importance of Arcuate nucleus extracellular matrix remodelling identified as a fundamental mechanism driving metabolic diseases, identifying neurofibrosis as a disease target #obesity #diabetes nature.com/articles/s4158…

A new finding that drives obesity and metabolic syndrome in the brain's arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus, a disorder of extracellular matrix, which could be a target of therapy in the future nature.com/articles/s4158… @Nature nature.com/articles/d4158… @NatureNV @justsaysinmice…

Excited to share our latest research published in Nature, revealing the crucial role of the brain's extracellular matrix in obesity and diabetes. nature.com/articles/s4158… Thanks to @CaitBeddows, @MrEdwardMoh, @UniMelb & our funding partners @nhmrc, @arc_gov_au and @DiabetesAus

A build-up of sticky goo that traps neurons in an appetite-control centre in the brain has been implicated in worsening diabetes and obesity go.nature.com/4d6ZyIJ

It’s EAD #ZenoTime! Stay tuned for our new neuro-peptidogenomics workflow in collaboration with @tony_purcell8 @DorvashMR @MonashUni @SCIEXnews @IonOpticks to micro-sample in vivo brain secretomes with @garrondodd @MattWattUnimelb and seed funding from @UniMelbMDHS.

.@UniMelb researchers say education about prevention and management of diabetes is the key to improving the lives of 1.8M Australians living with the disease. More 👉 go.unimelb.edu.au/mc4e #WorldDiabetesDay #DiabetesAwareness @garrondodd @ericaf_unimelb @MattWattUnimelb

Excited to share our data on the divergent and common signaling events between different types of exercise in human muscle. We focused on common events since these likely underlie exercise benefits, and show that S67 on C18ORF25 is an AMPK substrate that promotes muscle function.

So excited to have received funding by the @arc_gov_au to discover new brain circuits regulating hunger and whole-body metabolism @UniMelbMDHS @UniMelb .

For this interested in hypothalamic neuroscience and neuroendocrinology - Join us for this great virtual symposium....@CNE @SezSaysScience @ProlactinGuy @OxyPressinGuy @SJSpencerLab

students, students!!!!.... log on to the MDHS 'Discover Honours' Information Session (2022 Intake) and hear from CMR Ph.D. student Amy Bongetti as she discusses her research career so far. #Students #research @UniMelbMDHS Register using link below.. unimelb.zoom.us/webinar/regist…

The aetiology and molecular landscape of insulin resistance | Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology. We hope this will make a useful contribution to the field. It was great fun writing this with Drs Birnbaum and Stoeckli. ⁦@CPC_usyd⁩ nature.com/articles/s4158…

The daily burden of living with diabetes can be significant. It’s estimated that people with diabetes face up to 180 diabetes-related decisions everyday. ~65,000 extra decisions a year. Dr Dodd’s @UniMelb is investigating a new direction 👉 nhmrc.gov.au/about-us/news-… #NDW2021

Extremely proud of our team 💪🏻 @garrondodd

Looking forward to ANZOS 2021 where @CaitBeddows and I will presenting the Dodd lab's latest findings on targeting the brain to treat obesity. See everyone (virtually) there 🧑‍🔬 @ANZOS_Society #brain, #obesity #neuroscience anzos.com/anzos-annual-m…

Thanks @nhmrc for highlighting and supporting our latest research on Type2 diabetes 🧑‍🔬💉 nhmrc.gov.au/about-us/news-…
