Edward A. Fox studies the vagus nerve, a major nerve connecting the gut and brain, focusing on how it senses signals from the stomach and intestines to regulate feeding, digestion, and appetite. His work combines neuroanatomy, developmental biology, and physiology to understand gut-brain communication and its role in eating behavior and body weight regulation.
Publication output has been low and steady over the past decade, averaging about one paper per year with a slight uptick in 2023 and 2025.
