    Description

    The course Concepts and approaches in metabolic phenotyping, anti-obesity targeting and hypoxia research will present the complex gene-environment interactions in obesity and the challenges in the field of ‘phenotyping’: What to phenotype? How to phenotype? When to phenotype? These fundamental questions will be addressed in this course with particular emphasis on recent advances and emerging concepts about phenotyping for early metabolic predictors of obesity in view of developing effective strategies for both the prevention and treatment of obesity and associated cardiometabolic risks. In addition, the theory and practice of hypoxia research methods and techniques in cell biology and specific animal (disease) models will be presented.
