This research aims to understand the neural mechanisms behind binge eating, particularly how stress affects brain circuits involved in food intake. By studying mouse models, the project seeks to identify ways to restore normal brain function to help treat binge eating disorders.
Obesity and eating disorders are critical problems in society.
Many patients with these brain diseases cope with stress by ravenous food intake (binge eating), which engenders new stress and maintains the pathology.
Evidence-based treatments for this are urgently needed, but their implementation is hindered by a knowledge gap on: (i) which stress-driven neural disruptions cause binge eating, and (ii) whether these neural circuit changes can be normalized for therapeutic gain.
