Our video is based on the research article titled, Irisin exerts dual effects on browning and adipogenesis of human white adipocytes. The research was conducted by scientists at The University of Florida College of Medicine. Basically, it is about a hormone, called Irisin, that converts white fat cells into brown fat cells. This is important because white fat cells store energy while brown fat cells burn energy. Our video illustrates the hypothesis, methods, and conclusion related to the experiment in the article. Enjoy.
