Abstract The global obesity epidemic has heightened the need for an improved
understanding of how body weight is controlled, and research using mouse models
is critical to this effort. In this perspective, we provide a conceptual
framework for investigation of feeding behavior in this species, with an
emphasis on factors that influence study design, data interpretation, and
relevance to feeding behavior in humans. Although we focus on the mouse, the
principles presented can be applied to most other animal models. This document
represents the current consensus view of investigators from the National
Institutes of Health (NIH)-funded Mouse Metabolic Phenotyping Centers (MMPCs).
