The Center for
Metabolism
and Obesity
Research



From Albert Lehninger’s studies of mitochondrial metabolism to Peter Pedersen’s work in bioenergetics and more, Johns Hopkins has built a distinguished legacy of discovery in the field of metabolism and systems biology; the new Center for Metabolism and Obesity Research (CMOR) will enable Hopkins to continue to be a scientific leader in this field.

CMOR is an integrative and collaborative center that combines research into the molecular and cellular mechanisms of metabolism 
with a wide range of physiological and behavioral studies. Addressing 
topics such as nutrient sensing, bioenergetics, and endocrine
regulation, the center employs both cutting edge technologies and 
fundamental basic science to advance our understanding of the
biology that regulates metabolism and how it is dysregulated in
attendant disorders such as obesity and diabetes.
