About the Course

As the final event of the Virtual International Conference on Eating Disorders 2020 (AED & ANZAED), the Research Practice Global Think Tank will provide a unique opportunity for reflection and discussion on COVID-19 and its impact on eating disorders in research and clinical practice. The session will include 4 panelists. After the co-chairs introduce the topic, each panelist will speak briefly on how their clinical practice and/or research has been impacted by COVID-19 including preliminary results, clinical experiences, and how they may have had to take a different perspective over the course of the global pandemic. Virtual attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions and exchange views regarding research-practice integration and COVID-19

This course is based on the video, Research-Practice Global Think Tank – Eating Disorders in the Time of COVID-19 created by Tracey Wade, PhD, FAED, Christine Peat, PhD, FAED, Ruth Striegel Weissman, PhD, FAED, and Brittany Metheson in 2020.

Dr. Peat is a Clinical Assistant Professor in the Center of Excellence for Eating Disorders. Her broader research interests center on the etiology and treatment of both eating and weight disorders; however, her primary interests are in binge eating disorders, overeating, and obesity. She is particularly interested in the intersection between obesity, bariatric surgery, and eating pathology and investigating the outcomes associated with success after bariatric surgery. Dr. Peat also evaluates the available treatment options for binge eating disorder and investigates medical morbidities associated with eating disorders.
