Harvey Grill and lab members have shown that leptin, a hormone made in fat, acts on the same neurons in the brain that respond to signals arising from food in the stomach. Immunohistochemical images of **green** pSTAT leptin responsive cells, **red** c-Fos stomach distention responsive cells and yellow neurons responsive to both signals
This image depeicts a stimulus used in David Brainard's lab for studies of how object shape and material properties influence object color appearance.
