Our Collaborations
We believe that scientific progress in the treatment of obesity and metabolic diseases is best achieved through strong interdisciplinary and international collaboration. Our work spans clinical research, translational science, and experimental models. Each of these areas benefits greatly from partnerships with academic institutions, hospitals, and research centers around the world.
These collaborations allow us to integrate diverse expertise, from nutritional science and endocrinology to microbiome research and behavioral medicine. Together, we aim to better understand the mechanisms of obesity, improve the effectiveness and safety of bariatric surgical procedures, and contribute to the development of evidence-based, personalised treatment strategies.
By fostering open exchange and research collaborations, we contribute to a global research effort dedicated to addressing one of the most pressing health challenges of our time.
