Summary
Tackling eating disorders is of growing importance in society, with increasing numbers of children and young people referred to eating disorder services. This PhD project focuses on ARFID (Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder), an eating disorder characterised by the restricted intake or avoidance of food. This project aims to uncover the causes of ARFID, paving the way for better clinical support and treatment. You will be part of an international multidisciplinary team of academic experts and people living with ARFID, learn cutting edge data science methods and will benefit from working closely together with ARFID clinicians and services.
