Obesity researcher Dr Giles Yeo challenges the conventional model and demonstrates that all calories are not created equal. He addresses why popular diets succeed, at least in the short term, and why they ultimately fail, and what your environment has to do with your bodyweight. Dr Giles Yeo is a Principal Research Associate at MRC Metabolic Diseases Unit and a Scientific Director of the Genomics/Transcriptomics Core at the University of Cambridge. He is author of Why calories don’t count [2021].
This event will be in-person (booking required), and also live-streamed on our festival YouTube channel.
