Important Phase 3 trial published in @NEJM today showing Setmelanotide (MC4R agonist) is highly effective at inducing weight loss in patients with Acquired Hypothalamic Obesity. (1/5)

Advances in scientific understanding of those hypothalamic pathways, work from many colleagues, can now benefit those very patients. (4/5)

And it’s live! Huge thanks to teams @Farooqi_Lab and @teichlab, especially the brilliant @feilijiang 👏👏👏
In a paper just published in @sciencemagazine, we teamed up with @teichlab to construct the most detailed atlas to date of hormone production and action in humans at cellular resolution. (1/8)

Prof. Sadaf Farooqi, winner of the EASO-@novonordiskfond Obesity Prize for Excellence, demonstrates in her research that weight is not just a matter of individual control, but is regulated by a highly conserved biological system in the hypothalamus.
