:It's a large group and you will need to think about how to divide the scope; broadly you could split between population genetics and molecular genetics - population genetics - Pima Indians, polynesian populations, heritability, twin studies, thrifty gene hypothesis; molecular genetics - O'Rahilly etc, and could extend to animal studies.[[User:Gareth Leng|Gareth Leng]] 10:15, 1 October 2010 (UTC) | :It's a large group and you will need to think about how to divide the scope; broadly you could split between population genetics and molecular genetics - population genetics - Pima Indians, polynesian populations, heritability, twin studies, thrifty gene hypothesis; molecular genetics - O'Rahilly etc, and could extend to animal studies.[[User:Gareth Leng|Gareth Leng]] 10:15, 1 October 2010 (UTC) | ||

just started looking up articles:
FTO: the first gene contributing to common forms of human obesity R. J. F. Loos1,*, C. Bouchard2 Obesity Reviews Volume 9, Issue 3, pages 246–250, May 2008
Genetic factors in human obesity I. S. Farooqi, S. O’Rahilly Obesity Reviews Volume 8, pages 37–40, March 2007
http://ama-med.org.ar/obesidad/MC4R_Mutation.pdf Clinical Spectrum of Obesity and Mutations in the Melanocortin 4 Receptor Gene I. Sadaf Farooqi, M.D., Ph.D., Julia M. Keogh, B.Sc., Giles S.H. Yeo, Ph.D., Emma J. Lank, B.Sc., Tim Cheetham, M.D., and Stephen O'Rahilly, M.D. N Engl J Med 2003; 348:1085-1095March 20, 2003
Common variants near MC4R are associated with fat mass, weight and risk of obesity Ruth J F Loos et al. Nature Genetics 40, 768 - 775 (2008) http://www.nature.com/ng/journal/v40/n6/full/ng.140.html
http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v404/n6778/full/404644a0.html a review article called the genetics of body weight regulation.
I know these aren't written as proper references but we can decide what ones we want to use then fix them.

Cyrus, you are registered both in Genetics of Obesity, and Stress and Appetite, please choose just one of these topics. Thanks. Nancy Sabatier 09:52, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
- Good to see you starting: suggest you use the bibliography subpage to place your references and the external links page to post any websites and other material.
- It's a large group and you will need to think about how to divide the scope; broadly you could split between population genetics and molecular genetics - population genetics - Pima Indians, polynesian populations, heritability, twin studies, thrifty gene hypothesis; molecular genetics - O'Rahilly etc, and could extend to animal studies.Gareth Leng 10:15, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
