Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Linda P G van Dommelen"
- Linda P G van Dommelen's research primarily focuses on the neurobiological mechanisms of food anticipation and its effects on behavior, particularly in animal models like rats.
- In her 2011 study published in *Eur J Neurosci*, she demonstrated that rats subjected to restricted feeding schedules develop anticipatory behaviors that are associated with increased activity in specific hypothalamic regions, namely the arcuate nucleus, dorsomedial hypothalamus, and lateral hypothalamus.
- The findings highlight the importance of these brain regions in the early development of food-anticipatory activity (FAA), contributing to the understanding of feeding behavior and potential implications for eating disorders such as activity-based anorexia.
