Study Summary

The interplay of genetic and behavioral factors is critical to understanding obesity. Behavioral weight loss intervention has emerged as a key strategy in combating obesity. However, individuals differ in their degree of success in these programs and genetic factors are known to play a role. In this application, the investigators propose to identify specific genes that predict individual differences in weight loss and high density lipoprotein cholesterol in response to behavioral intervention to help identify individuals that struggle with weight loss and cholesterol despite behavioral efforts.
