OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

Modification of human eating and addictive behaviours by gut hormones: understanding the potential for GLP-1 based drugs and beyond
There is evidence from pre-clinical studies that food intake and appetitive gut hormones, including ghrelin and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), not only alter appetite, but also food and non-food reward processing, as well as addictive behaviours influencing eating behaviour. There is more limited evidence from human studies. This talk will review our human studies using multi-modal phenotyping, including functional MRI, to study the food-gut-brain axis in eating and addictive behaviours.
