Publication with the Burgess lab in J Neurosci

We are excited to see our first collaboration with Christian Burgess’s lab published in the Journal of Neuroscience: Melanin concentrating hormone projections to the nucleus accumbens enhance the reward value of food consumption and do not induce feeding or REM sleep. Congratulations to first author Katherine Furman (graduate student in the Burgess lab) and to Limei (in the Mattis lab) for her contributions to this publication. This should be the first of many collaborations between our labs!
