The Roundtable on Obesity Solutions of The National Academies of
Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine held a virtual workshop on
September 16, 2020 titled Using Systems Applications to Inform
Obesity Solutions. It explored various systems science approaches
(i.e., methodologies and tools) and support structures that could
guide future obesity research and action, and featured examples of
how these approaches can inform decision making within policy and
program areas. Workshop speakers discussed the support structures
(e.g., data sources, modeling expertise, training, and partnerships
and collaborations) that encourage and engage researchers and
decision makers to use systems science approaches to better
understand the causes of and solutions to the obesity epidemic.
This publication summarizes the presentations and discussions from
the workshop. Table of Contents Front Matter 1 Introduction 2 The
Promises and Pitfalls of Systems Science Approaches: A
