The Columbia University Seminar on Appetitive Behavior

Invites you to celebrate its 40th
Anniversary with a symposium entitled:

 Translational Research in Appetitive Behavior: A 40
Year Retrospective and a Look Ahead.

our understanding of how the brain, gut, hormones, and adipose tissue contribute to the
control of appetite, food intake, and body weight.
