2) Homeostasis, autonomic nervous system, and endocrine system
3) Brain regulation of appetite
4) Brain regulation of biological rhythm
5) Brain regulation of body temperature
6) Brain regulation of emotion
7) Brain regulation of stress
8) Global warming, and management of heat stress in monogastric animal
