Yesterday we had a very exciting session on the role of brown fat on cardiometabolic health in humans! Thanks to the @EASDnews for the opportunity to present our research @ruizruizjonatan @profithugr @BAT_Turku and to @InFLAMES_Health for its support! Let's go on with the fun! 🤓

It has been exciting week for us so far, we performed the first total body PET perfusion scan under ❄cold stimulation using 15O-H2O. With our new total-body PET scanner we are able to detect the metabolism of all organs simultaneously. Exciting times! 🥶🔥😎🎉@TurkuPETCentre – at Turku, Finland

FM Teemu Saari tutki lihavuuden vaikutuksia ruskean ja valkoisen rasvan rasvahappoaineenvaihduntaan ja verenkiertoon. Tutkimus osoitti, että lihavuus vähentää ruskean rasvan rasvahappoaineenvaihduntaa kylmässä ja huoneenlämmössä. #väitös #uniturku utu.fi/fi/ajankohtaista/vait…
