Alex Reichenbach
I am a Post-doctoral fellow In the lab of Prof Zane Andrews at the Physiology department at Monash University in Melbourne, Australia. I completed my Masters in Biochemistry at the Free University Berlin, Germany and received my PhD in Neuroscience from Monash University, Australia. I’m interested in how metabolic neural circuits detect hunger and link states of hunger with mood, motivation, memory and metabolism. I use in vivo calcium imaging and optogenetics to investigate how hunger-sensing AgRP neurons communicate the metabolic state to other brain circuits to shape behaviour.
