Eating Disorders and Adolescent Mental Health

• We are part of the Behavioural and Brain Sciences Unit, based at UCL’s Institute of Child Health.   
• We are a multi-disciplinary team  with an interest in eating disorders and mental health of adolescents.  
• We are involved in variety of research projects, with a focus on epidemiology, the effects of eating disorders in pregnancy, risk factor research and prevention.  
• We collaborate with a number of UK  and international organisations to improve our understanding of adolescent mental health, how eating disorders develop in adolescence and their effect on adolescent development as well as the intergenerational transmission of eating disorders.
