Jake W. Willows studies how nerves connect to and regulate fat tissue (adipose tissue), including how this nerve supply changes with aging, metabolic disease, and obesity. His work uses mouse models and imaging techniques to map and quantify nerve fibers within fat depots, and also touches on related topics like brain stem cells and tissue aging. This research is relevant to understanding energy balance, metabolic disorders, and age-related tissue changes.
Publication output has grown from occasional single papers in the late 2010s to a steadier pace of roughly 4-7 papers per year in the early 2020s, though 2025 shows a gap before an uptick in 2026.
