Ferdinand von Meyenn

Join Ferdinand von Meyenn, an Assistant Professor at ETH Zurich and expert in metabolic epigenetics, as he unravels the mystery of why fat cells remember obesity.

He discusses the significance of maternal effects, the durability of adipose memory, and the role of diet in shaping these changes. The conversation also touches on inflammation's role in weight regulation and why prevention and compassion are crucial for addressing obesity.
