Targeted Magnetic Nanodiscs for Wireless Causal Manipulation of Gut-Brain Circuits

Ye Ji Kim, Nasim Biglari, Taylor M. Cannon, Cameron Forbrigger, Scott Machen, Emmanuel Vargas Paniagua, Karen Ka Lam Pang, Jessica Slaughter, Jacob L. Beckham, Keisuke Nagao, Elizabeth Whittier, Florian Koehler, Rebecca Leomi, Polina Anikeeva

This paper develops magnetic nanodiscs for wireless, cell-type specific activation of gut-brain circuits, showing they can regulate feeding behavior through hindbrain satiety circuits.
