MC4R agonist now licensed for treatment of young children with POMC, PCSK1, LEPR deficiencies

Within a given environment, some people put on weight very easily, whilst others remain thin.

We use genetic, molecular and clinical approaches to study cohorts of individuals with severe obesity and thinness.
