Samar Tareen successfully defends thesis
Former PhD student Samar H.K. Tareen has successfully defended his thesis entitled 'Modelling molecular processes in weight loss: Regulation of metabolic flexibility'.
The research presented in this thesis has provided a detailed picture of cellular metabolic flexibility in obesity and weight loss, as well as the changes taking place in the subcutaneous adipose tissue during weight loss as a whole.
The chapters have identified genes, proteins and biological processes involved with metabolic flexibility, allowing their use as a guide map for successive targeted research in the future, as we progress towards tackling the epidemic of obesity and associated chronic illnesses.
