CAROLINE WEE LAB
Nutrient-Metabolic Interactions in Brain and Behaviour
We aim to gain a holistic understanding of the networks of
genes, microbes, molecules, and neurons
linking dietary intake and metabolism to brain and behaviour.
​
Our goals are to generate new scientific knowledge that will address societal challenges
and enhance human health and well-being.
We are located at the Institute of Molecular and Cell Biology (A*STAR), Singapore
in the Division of Neurometabolism in Health and Diseases.
