Timo Müller Receives the ADA 2026 Outstanding Scientific Achievement Award👏
👉 t1p.de/qq5nl
Congratulations to Prof. Timo Müller, Director of the Institute for Diabetes and Obesity at #HelmholtzMunich and Professor at LMU, on receiving the “2026 Outstanding Scientific Achievement Award” from the American Diabetes Association.
💡 This award recognizes researchers whose work demonstrates exceptional originality, independence of thought, and significant impact in the field of diabetes research. Timo Müller’s pioneering discoveries have reshaped the scientific understanding of obesity and diabetes, providing
foundational insights into central nervous system GIP receptor biology and paving the way for the development of next-generation incretin-based
polyagonists.
🌟His work has substantially advanced therapeutic strategies and opened new avenues for the treatment of metabolic diseases.
The award will be presented at the ADA Scientific Sessions in June.

📢CiMUS is offering 9 fully funded PhD positions! And good news,@AVieitesPrado and I will co-supervise one of them. Our project will explore how estrogens shape brain neuromodulatory circuits♀️🧠. Deadline: 19/04/2026 cimus.usc.gal/es/training/md…
I'm excited to share our latest open‑access review, “Neuroendocrine crosstalk between sex and metabolic hormones: mechanisms and implications across the female reproductive spectrum.”
Read it here: lnkd.in/eb3ZFvEt
Huge congratulations to Virginie, Dali and Jim! -->
Why we’re excited about this :
🔹 It synthesizes two fields that are too often studied separately.
🔹 It clarifies mechanisms that can inform future therapeutic strategies targeting metabolic and reproductive health.

🧠 New review from the lab in @CellCellPress: Brain Control of Energy Homeostasis
We explore how central nervous system circuits regulate energy balance, and how this informs the development of next-generation obesity pharmacotherapies.

Science and research matter.
They are fundamental building blocks of Canada.
We need a minister with research in their title.
Research leads to innovation and
economic growth.
Time for Canada to lead and welcome researchers to build Canada.

i move to nominate this guy for the nobel prize, because he tried to warn us 8 years ago, but we didn't listen
