Happy to share our new paper with Mathilde Nordlund and Julie Koenig out @currentbiology.bsky.social. We used virtual reality in mice to study hippocampal distance coding. Our results suggest a primary contribution of grid cells to distance over cue-dependent place cell coding.

🧠🍽️ A "hunger switch" in the nose? Smelling food activates a pathway from the olfactory bulb to medial septum glutamatergic neurons in mice, triggering anticipatory satiety: making them feel full before eating.
This circuit works in lean mice but is disrupted in obesity.

A food-sensitive olfactory circuit drives anticipatory satiety - Nature Metabolism
The authors describe a sensory circuit involving the medial septum (MS), where MS glutamatergic neurons integrate food odours to prime satiety and regulate nutrient intake.

This was a really fun project: We blocked obesity in mice by making them do a tiny bit of work for their food. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
A simple action reduces high-fat diet intake and obesity in mice
Diets that are high in fat cause overeating and weight gain in multiple species of animals, suggesting that high dietary fat is sufficient to cause ob…
