Amazing insights into adipose tissue led by @mrc-lms.bsky.social group head Will Scott and his team!
A new study, published today in Nature, reveals the hidden benefits of weight loss on fat tissue.
A better understanding of how weight loss leads to health improvements at a molecular level could help inform the development of therapies for diseases such as type 2 diabetes in the future.
