Eating Disorders
Rodent models of eating disorders have been recently developed, especially focused on binge-like eating behavior. One model in particular uses an effort-based choice task with food reinforcement, in which the animals are not food restricted following training, in order to mimic what is seen clinically in BED (binge eating disorder). |
