For the first time ever, researchers have converted human skin cells into appetite controlling neurons, which might eventually provide obesity cure. The study, led by researchers at Columbia University Medical Center (CUMC) and at the New York Stem Cell Foundation (NYSCF), found that cells provided individualized model for studying obesity and testing treatments.
