Mark Andermann, Ph.D., receives NIH New Innovator Award to study cravings and hunger
Andermann Lab: Understanding Food Cues
Dr. Mark Andermann is a researcher in BIDMC's Division of Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolism. His work aims to understand how hunger and external food cues cause changes in the brain and their potential consequences for obesity, binge eating and other eating disorders. Using novel imaging technologies to assess exactly how hunger influences sensory processing, Andermann's work is providing answers to fundamental questions to help guide the development of treatments for obesity.
