Researchers have discovered a mechanism behind the yo-yo effect: fat cells have a memory that is based on epigenetics.

A new study led by researchers from ETH Zurich and Vrije Universiteit Brussel and published in The Cryosphere provides the ...

The XPRIZE Rainforest competition acknowledged ETH Zurich-led team for its development and deployment of novel, autonomous ...

Researchers at ETH Zurich have now been able to show that this is all down to epigenetics. Epigenetics is the part of genetics that’s based not on the sequence of genetic building blocks but on small ...

ETH Zurich researchers have identified an epigenetic memory in fat cells that drives the yo-yo effect after weight loss.

Changes to the structure of DNA within fat cells may be why it is often so hard to keep weight off after you have lost it ...

RoBoa, a snake-like robot, is transforming search-and-rescue missions and inspections by accessing places humans can't ...

A question of discipline? No, there are probably also physiological reasons. Ferdinand von Meyenn is Assistant Professor of ...

The results suggest that people trying to slim down will often require long-term care to avoid weight regain, says study ...

In the new study, scientists found that cells from human and mouse fat tissue show gene activity changes that are retained ...

Fat tissue may commit weight to memory. For people living with obesity, losing weight can help reduce the risk of health problems such as type 2 diabetes or cardiovascular disease (SN: 2/29/24). But ...
