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 food decisions and other motivated behaviours.

​

Our goals are to generate new scientific knowledge that will address societal challenges

and advance 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.
