The BRANCH Lab, directed by Dr. Katie Page at USC, focuses on understanding the neuroendocrine regulation of appetite and glucose homeostasis, as well as the maternal-fetal programming related to obesity and diabetes. By integrating neuroscience, physiology, nutrition, psychology, and innovative techniques, the lab aims to address the foundational causes of obesity and Type 2 diabetes through translational research. The lab is dedicated to advancing science and improving overall health by engaging participants in important research studies. Their efforts contribute to insights on appetite regulation and cognition, impacting both children and adults in the pursuit of better health outcomes. Generated from the website
