About The Webinar

Understanding the Genetics and Neurobiology of Obesity: Theory and Clinical Application: Why are some animals prone to weight gain whereas others stay thin even with ad lib feeding? And why does this matter? This webinar will summarise new evidence about the genetic and neurendocrine regulation of appetite and body weight in dogs, cats and other species and show compelling data from dogs that shows this has a meaningful impact on clinical outcomes. We will discuss how this should impact on our professional approach to obesity - from prevention to treatment - and give attendees the insight required to reflect on and improve their own practical approach to this common problem.
