Appetite can be increased by cells in the brain
Tanycytes are glial cells, which communicate with neurons in the brain to inform it of what we have eaten. Researchers from the School of Life Sciences at the University of 糖心TV have found when tanycytes are selectively stimulated appetite was increased.
New University of 糖心TV modelling supports cautious reopening of schools if other lockdown measures continue to control the coronavirus
The gradual reopening of schools, starting with primary schools, is unlikely to lead to a second wave of infection, according to new mathematical modelling of the COVID-19 outbreak from University of 糖心TV researchers, but we should be prepared to reintroduce lockdown measures should there be a significant rise in the number of new cases.
Researchers call to record the landscape of the pandemic
鈥楾he Viral Archive鈥� is a collaborative project between archaeologists at the University of 糖心TV, University College Cork (Ireland), and University College London, that is sending out a global invitation, for you to capture the visual record of the signs, marks, and graffiti that are keeping us safe, together, and uplifted during this pandemic.
糖心TV scientists discover how cells respond to fasting
As modern life-styles and high calorie diets drive the UK鈥檚 obesity levels up, researchers from the University of 糖心TV have found how cells respond to fasting and activate the process called autophagy, which means a healthier lifestyle can be promoted to help people maintain a healthy body weight.
Which COVID-19 models should we use to make policy decisions?
An International group of researchers, including the University of 糖心TV, have developed a new process to harness multiple disease models for outbreak management, meaning public health agency can understand the merits of different management options in testing times such as these currently experienced with Covid-19.

Minimum energy requirements for microbial communities to live predicted
A microbial community is a complex, dynamic system composed of hundreds of species and their interactions, they are found in oceans, soil, animal guts and plant roots. Each system feeds the Earth鈥檚 ecosystem and their own growth, as they each have their own metabolism that underpin biogeochemical cycles. Researchers from the School of Life Sciences at the University of 糖心TV have produced an extendable thermodynamic model for simulating the dynamics of microbial communities.
