Professor Nik Morton's Inaugural Lecture
Lean Genes: slim fit, or slim pickings?Networking | Seminars
1 May 2024
5.30 pm - 7.30 pmIt’s a common observation that some people can eat what they like and not gain weight. But, given the evidence that such people do exist, how can we study them to learn the biological processes that support their lean and healthy constitution? Join Professor Nik Morton as he takes you through his scientific career from being a PhD student when the first real "fat hormone" was discovered, and a whole human genome was laboriously sequenced after years of analysis, through to now, where rapid population level DNA sequencing in hundreds of thousands of people can identify genes that explain our body shape and fatness. Nik will interweave his own discoveries through this tale, highlighting what we know about how our bodies have evolved to be a range of shapes and sizes, and what processes keep this in check in our daily lives.
