We are delighted to learn that Vice Executive Director Professor @keisakamoto.bsky.social has been elected a Fellow of the @royalsoced.bsky.social!
He says: "I am deeply honoured to be elected as a Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh ... It inspires me to keep pursuing meaningful science."
We are just over half way through Metabolism Day 2026, with Dr Manon Mathias now on stage.
Following her talk, the day ends with keynotes from Dr. Antje Körner and Sir Stephen O’Rahilly.

We recently welcomed two new members to our group @cbmr.science Postdoc Salim Hanna will be working on identifying translation-oriented approaches targeting #AMPK to improve muscle metabolic function. Research assistant, Frederik Gouliaev will be investigating AMPK and its phosphatases in the group.

The honour recognises Professor Sakamoto's distinguished contributions to metabolic research and his enduring connection to Scotland, where his independent research career began.
Abstract figure legend Therapies targeting the glucagon receptor are being explored for obesity treatment, yet most preclinical studies remain male biased. In this study, Merrild and Johansen et al. ...
Appetite suppression by glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) is thought to result from direct actions on neural circuits controlling food intake. In this article, we (1) propose that a shift in fuel partitioning toward fat oxidation caused by GLP-1RAs contributes to appetite suppression and (2) explore potential lines of research to test this hypothesis.
The circadian system regulates daily rhythms in metabolism and hormone secretion; however, in type 2 diabetes, disrupted clock gene oscillations in sk…
Obesity is a global public health concern closely linked to cardiometabolic complications. This Comment provides our views on recent breakthroughs, emerging innovations and future needs of therapeutic interventions to counteract obesity and its associated health risks.
