Advances in neuro-technology for mapping, manipulating, and monitoring molecularly
defined cell types are rapidly advancing insight into neural circuits that regulate appetite.
Here, we review these important tools and their applications in circuits that control food
seeking and consumption. Technical capabilities provided by these tools establish a
rigorous experimental framework for research into the neurobiology of hunger.
