Course on Obesity

What will I learn?
You will build a thorough understanding of how obesity develops, how it is diagnosed, and how it is treated across diverse patient populations. The course covers adipose tissue biology, neuroendocrine appetite regulation, and the genetic factors that influence body weight. You will learn to perform clinical assessments, interpret laboratory results, and apply validated staging systems. Evidence-based interventions — including dietary strategies, exercise prescription, behavioural therapies, pharmacotherapy, and bariatric surgery — are covered in detail. Special populations such as children, older adults, and pregnant women receive dedicated attention. You will also explore public health approaches, digital health tools, and ethical practice in obesity care.
