How does the body clock affect fat cells? | Wellcome
All the cells in our body have a timekeeping mechanism called the molecular clock – or the body clock. We know it’s important, but we don’t really understand how it impacts our health.
Dr Louise Hunter is hoping to change that.
She’s researching if our body clocks affect the way that our cells store fat, and it could fundamentally improve our understanding of health and disease.
