Summary
Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is a serious neurological condition linked to obesity—but weight loss isn’t simple when disordered eating, trauma, and mental health challenges are in the mix. This innovative PhD project blends clinical, psychology, and imaging tools to explore how tailored, person-centred care can improve outcomes for people with IIH. You’ll help shape holistic strategies that not only support disease remission but could revolutionise obesity care more broadly. Ideal for candidates passionate about mental health, neuropsychology, and making a real-world impact.
