The course will be aimed to describe new approaches in the study of functional interactions useful for the different research objectives of the REP-EAT project. The platform ENSPIRE available at UNITE and its potentiality for the study of interactions will be presented into detail giving particular emphasys to CNS targets involved also in eating disorders and obesity.
