Australian agriculture relies on achieving optimal healthy animal growth. A strategy to accelerate growth rates is to exploit the vulnerability of the early life period to long-term programming. This project will investigate how neonatal overfeeding alters brain circuitry controlling weight to determine methods to manipulate weight gain in industry.

澳大利亚农业依赖于实现最佳的健康动物生长。加快增长率的一项战略是利用生命早期易受长期方案规划影响的弱点。这个项目将调查新生儿过度喂养如何改变控制体重的大脑回路，以确定在工业中操纵体重增加的方法。
