YES lab is a new lab started on May 24th 2023 lead by Prof. Ye Hui. YES lab works in the field of neuroendocrinology and nutrition. YES lab is interested in exploring how dietary components (e.g., nature products) or endogenous metabolites (e.g., oxysterols, metabolites from cholesterols) regulate energy homeostasis, such as food intake, glucose balance, physical activity, and thermogenesis.
Other projects in the lab include testing whether any potential structural activity relationship or sexual dimorphism occurs in the regulation of dietary components in energy metabolism. Our research aims to develop food functionality for a specific purpose with foods “designed” to contain specific functional components for a desired positive health outcome.
YES lab is actively recruiting. There are roles for a Postdoc (with neuroscience or related background), PhD students, a research associate, and a research assistant (with neuroscience, nutrition, or biology background).
