Roundtable on Obesity Solutions: Call for Experts

About the Activity & the Call for Experts

Learn more about the activity here

The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine is seeking suggestions for experts to be considered for membership to the Roundtable on Obesity Solutions. Since 2014, the Roundtable on Obesity Solutions has been the only national, multisector convener bringing together a variety of voices with a shared and dedicated focus on obesity. Through meetings, workshops, publications, and Innovation Collaboratives, the Roundtable fosters ongoing dialogue on emerging science, evaluation, and innovation efforts in obesity prevention, treatment, and management for children and adults. The Roundtable explores and advances solutions at the systems level. Using these suggestions, the National Academies staff will be looking to fill ~2-3 open seats on the ~35-member Roundtable of volunteer experts, in addition to collecting information for potential future speakers and participants.

The National Academies value a wide range of perspectives to strengthen the quality of our work. We carefully consider alternative viewpoints when formulating advice, convening experts with differing experience and perspectives, providing oversight, and conducting all other activities, and strive to foster an environment where all can participate fully. We welcome your suggestions for a broad range of experts to work with us.

We invite you to submit your suggestions by February 23, 2026 AT 12:00 AM.
